afternoon - 10 dog pound/trails run backward with some extensions.  First few steps were great as there was absolutely no pain.  By the end there was very minimal pain in the hip flexor area.  So hopefully things are working a little.  (Stratus black45.25)

Afternoon - 9.5 - 2x2000.  2450 warmup w/ Austin then 2000's.  I wasn't really sure how many I would be able to do, and I knew that the pace wouldn't be super since I hadn't done anything like this in awhile.  Hit the first in 6:38 (5:15 at the mile) then had a 2 minute recovery and did the second in 6:43 (5:20 at the mile).  Would like to have done more, but figured this isn't the time to really kill myself, rather just get a baseline and go from there.  Finished with another 2450 and then drills.  Today, no pain!  (Cumulus gold 64.4)

afternoon - 10 Fields and DI.  Went out for a wet chilly run w/ Austin into the fields and finished with DI loop.  Could feel the 2000's in the legs, but no pain in hip flexor/abs again.  Ended with drills core.  (Cumulus white 397.05)

noon - 8 Middleton.  Still very wet and rainy out, so that threw off my plan of heading out onto some trails.  Like yesterday, had some fatigue in the legs and just took it very easy.  (Landreth 510.4)

noon - 10.25 10x400m hills at Highland.  Ran up to Highland and thought the hill up toward the park would be a good one for some hills (nothing Sunrise steep, but a solid incline where I would be working and still trying to make it fairly fast paced).  From the light up to the 3rd street on the left was exactly 1/4 mile for future reference.  At first, I was still dragging, but by 5 my legs were juicing up a bit.  Then the last three I really worked - especially the last.  I really tried to keep my best form focusing on lean and leg rotation.  Then jogged it back on home.  (Cumulus blue 453.65)

morning - 14 Hurricane Trails.  The Circle and Ruthie went for a nice run around the trails out in Hurricane.  Started out at the canal trailhead and connected to the rim and jem trails.  Had to end with a little xc and down the road.  It was okay though, because the distance was enough for all of us.  (Landreth black 265.35)

Week was a success.  Mostly because my pain was very little at first and by the end of the week basically nonexistent.  And I was even able to get a couple decent/quicker workouts in with no side effects.

Goals for next week:  Mileage is staying low (55-60).  Hopefully I can stay pain free - goal for that is to continue to do core workouts, drills, ice, ibo and rest.  We (PVXC) are going to have a time-trial on our school course in a few weeks and I wouldn't mind being able to hang near the top guys!
