Yesterday, I was given clearance to do 15-20 minute runs. I need to make sure my hips are aligned and keep them in line. I also need to avoid hills and trails for the time being.
I warmed up 10 minutes on the stationary bike and then quickly drove down the hill from my office to the first place I could park and did 15 minutes that included only 43ft of total climb. I was going faster than I expected at 6:50 pace for the run but it felt very good. The usual sit bone pain was there but the front hip impingement was not and the SI joint felt ok as well. I am also pretty sure I stayed in alignment. Then I hurried back to the office for 10 minutes on the stationary bike to cool down.
I like being outside infinitely better than on that bike but glad to get in 35 minutes of cardio. 20 minutes of running tomorrow.
