     Spent the night in Mesquite. Had the normal muscle soreness I usually get on the day after a marathon. Going up and down stairs hurts. Hip flexor isn't to bad. less sore than yesterday. It tightened up yesterday after the race once I had stopped running and was sore walking.

     Still some muscle soreness [mainly on stairs] but much better than yesterday. Hip flexor very little soreness, just certain moves cause discomfort.

     Legs are feeling pretty good today and no soreness in the hip flexor under normal activities but I'm sure I wouldn't have to run very far for the pain to come on again. I don't think it's any worse off than it was after it first got sore 2 1/2 weeks before the marathon.

     The leg soreness is pretty much gone today. Soreness from hip flexor is gone also [I'm sure it would quickly come back if I ran a ways]. I went 15 miles on the mountain bike. I had good energy and really hammered on the way back.
