Today I ran 5 miles in 38:46. I ran most of it at 7.6 mph. I started out doing my usual Monday run, though I did not take the quarter miles at the end of each mile any higher than 8.3 mph. Then my left hip started hurting. I ran Friday for 3:20:25 and did my usual 6 mile run on Saturday and did not feel a thing. During my Saturday run I actually forgot about it. And now it started hurting today? What gives??? I even had a full day of rest yesterday. I was really afraid I would have to abandon the remaining part of my run today, but I backed it off to 7.5 mph (8:00 min/mile pace) and it started feeling better. We'll have to see how things go tomorrow.
This evening I cycled 56 minutes on my trainer. That would equate to roughly 17 miles.
Huh, that is odd...though I'm glad it felt better the next day.
ReplyDeleteAnd I must say...you really inspire me to want to run.
Very glad I can do that : )
