My lower back has been really tight for the last few days.  The only reason I can think of is all the walking in Boston.  I think we walked about 15 miles in the last couple days.  I tried running this morning but could only get a few steps.  I don't want to push it if my back doesn't cooperate.  I'll switch to cross training until my back feels better.....
