First run since the marathon. I'm really tore up aka JACKED. I didn't feel any crazy injury and in fact the hip felt pretty good (other than being tight from riding the trainer yesterday... biking could be the problem). But my muscles are all just soup. Still sore, still weak, still needing more junk food:). I think I pushed it harder into the danger zone in this last race than I ever have. Hence I'm gonna take much longer to recover.
So I'm not 100% but I really think that biking is what has been making my hip hurt while I'm running for like the last year... I'm still gonna try a few more trials in the next couple weeks to see but it's looking like one of the main reasons. While riding it's causing some irritation that shows up while running. So I may not be riding anymore for a year... or I've got to figure out how to fix the problem so I can do both and eventually get that full ironman off my chest.
