AM - just 3.25 miles with Finn in the dark before church.  Had wanted to go out early for a longer effort, but awoke later than planned and Finn was favoring his left paw late yesterday, so we stayed on the soft trail.

AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and Finn on Wood Rd/Milton trail earlier than usual, as I have some early meetings on my schedule today.   Left hip is tight and oddly sore.   Think it may be the statin.   Will take a few days off from it and see how if it improves.

AM - 6.25 miles with Dan and the dogs from his house to the horsetrail roads.  Rained overnight and it was a little warmer in the low 50's and damp out today.  Left hip was perhaps slightly better today.

AM - 5.5 miles with the guys from Starbucks through north park.  Left hip is giving me some concern - did some loops on the practice football field at Cambridge HS at the end.
