Clyde's Comeback!

DC loop via Secret Street. Coldest morning so far this season. Actually it's about as cold as it get baring super cold spells. 25 F on the Little Valley web site and 27 F here at home. Wore tights, hat, gloves and an extra base layer on top. Ended up having plenty of cloths on. Evey year I have to remember the cold weather calibration for dressing on runs. Hip hurt around a 7 but everything else felt pretty good. The good thing about cold weather is that your body feels less pain (after you get going). Kind of like wearing an icepack on the injury. 

Super painful run. I have good and bad ones. Today about killed me off. Hip started really grinding 5 miles into the run, by 8 I was totally done but still had 4 miles to get home. Couldn't walk because I had be be home in time to pick up Myler at preschool. Just dug it out. Pain every single stride. Really having a hard time pulling the left foot through the stride. 

Oh well with the way things look on the news "training" may be something of the past for me anyways. 

Chilly run this morning with the lads. 29 F. Pace was slowish but conversation was chatty. Enjoyed getting out with the Circle and that my hip was much better than yesterday. Still hurt but wasn't like death the whole run. 

60 min's on the spinner. 

60 min's on the elliptical. 

Just felt super hurt and banged up this morning. Tired of fighting the pain. So I bagged any running and just hit the machines. Still struggled to get through the 2 hours.

DC loop. Hip and groin pain were doable today and temps were up. So I went out on the streets. Felt ok through about 6 but then the dang hip started hitching and it kind of bugged all the way back home. My body is a freaking mess right now and my shape is awful. 

Body just hurt too bad to run today. Actually with all the achyness I didn't want to do anything. So I slept in and then took Mik'L down to Vegas for the day so she could work with her dad. Finally made it through this long month and then some as today was the last day of FLP!
