3 easy at home tm.  faster at end to beat my time monday (7 days covid, 9th day today).  27:40.   Monday night 1/10 I was in a lot of nerve pain in my right groin to buttock so didn't run tuesday and wednesday.  Felt okay on this run, pelvis front of bone not symphisis burns/feels like pulling fascia.  Also did weights.  Tonight no pain in groin.  Figured covid trying to envelop my muscles.  Like viruses like to, hence the two days off.  Feel great symptom wise.

3.25 mile jog testing out pelvis.  Feel like a zombie.  But woke enough to join Kim 8 x 3 min on with two min jog.  I did modified.  Lower abdomen and symphisis just trying to figure things out again. Sacrum not hurting.  Last two weeks much better there. But jot si great in pelvis. 7.7/7.8/7.9/8.0/8.1/7.7/7.9/8.1-9.0.  Came to 4.8 miles in 40 min.  Jogged at 6 mph.   No crazy gnawing throbbing pelvic pain like last Monday.  Just stiff in pelvic joints.
