Easy run with strides.

Hip is feeling weak.

Ran from home to meet my group at East Boulder Rec for a workout.

It was a tough one today. I was limping by the end.

My left hip was pretty sore on the warm up. The thought crossed my mind "maybe, I should just run easy today and do my workout later in the week." I didn't listen. Ugh. I'm kinda hating myself right now.

My whole left leg has been throbbing since workout yesterday. Couldn't sleep much last night because I kept waking up with pain. Spent a lot of time on the foam roller working out my glutes, quads, and hip flexor. Even my left calf is angry.

Bummer.

I must have been over-compensating for my left hip during the entire run on Tuesday, especially near the end because my achilles, calf, and glutes have been super angry all week too.

I've been limping around all week and attempting to find a cross training exercise that doesn't hurt. I've been on the foam roller multiple times per day and Aaron has been massaging the trigger points throughout my left leg/lower back every day. I will see Richey next week too.

The good news is that I didn't have much time to feel sorry for mysef yesterday or today because I filled up my schedule with serving and helping others. There has strangely been A LOT of need for help among my friends this week so at least I have had something good to do that takes my mind off myself. I'm trying to count my blessings and look at what I do have rather than just see what is being taken away from me. 

I haven't pulled the plug on Indianapolis yet, but I have to admit I have my hand on the chord.  ;(
