My back was still so tight yesterday. It hurt even to breathe. After moving around through the day it loosened up, and the hip seemed to be improving too. so I decided to attempt my 15 miler. I need those long runs! Devra showed up at my house at 6 a.m. with a surprise guest. Kristen Ogden came to run with us, so we had a nice little running group. Kristen only needed 12, so instead of doing the loop out 1300W and turning at the temple, we turned at 9000S and ran up to 2700W. We ran back to 5400 S, and back to my house. Kristen stretched on my lawn while Devra and I ran 2.5 more miles through the neighborhood. It seemed to go quickly with running partners. I felt pretty good, which is to be expected after two days off. I still feel the tightness in the hip, and I will have to see how it recovers today. I think it is manageable, but definitely something to watch. But, I was happy to be running. This was my longest run since back in October. |
