It was cooler this morning (71) and less humid plus it was windy which felt good.  I was concerned going out today after having pain in the hip yesterday.  Because of that I started off real easy to try to get loosened up real good.  I felt ok the first couple of miles so picked up the pace.  I did have some tightening in the hip and a little pain but it was much better than yesterday.  Most of that was during the middle miles and actually felt better toward the end.  This is my longest run since getting going again and it felt good to get in some extra miles.  Still trying to get built back up.  Feel like I am starting to make some progress if I can keep this hip from acting up.

Thanks! Getting closer. Just trying to chip away at it until I get back.
