Went to see the Sports Med doctor today. Aside from identifying tight hamstrings and weak hip flexors, no definitive diagnosis to my adductor pain, although he did pinpoint the source as the tendon attachment to the pelvis. Due to the nature, I'm headed for some Xrays and an MRI as soon as the insurance and scheduling get sorted out. In the meantime, I was cleared to run easy miles/pace if pain-free, which when I tried I was not. Instead, I did 60 minutes on the recumbant stationary bike, 19.55 miles, fat burner level 1. Both outer hamstrings were pretty tired at the end, especially on the left leg. Followed with some core exercises (avoiding the painful ones) and more stretching.
