Ok, so I really need to figure out how to get past these right leg problems. I have absolutely no problems with my left leg, but my right one continues to have small nagging injuries. I felt that my IT band was doing much better until Sunday when I helped my brother move all sorts of boxes/furniture/etc. into storage. As the day progressed, I sometimes had a hard time getting up and down the stairs. I don't know if it was my IT completely as my leg was really weak on the front where it meets the hip. Who know....so I took more time off to let it all heal. I decided to run today to test my legs, and keep some sembelance of fitness. I ran 5 miles in 38:10, which tells me that my fitness didn't leave me. My right hip on the front was pretty tight at the beginning of the run, but it seemed to work its way loose as the run progressed. Overall, I'm just completely annoyed that I continue to have these leg problems with only one leg. I've now started some leg strengthening exercises at the gym to try and mitigate these problems. On another note....I'm blogging from my brand new computer and it's sweet, although I'm annoyed that a job interview I had scheduled for today was postponed until sometime next week. After running tonight, and eating dinner, I went to the gym for an intenst 1.5 hours where I pretty much destroyed my entire body. The worst part of it was when I hit the abs after the end of my intense workout. Wow....I'm tired and should sleep well tonight. Ugh....at least I have running!
