Five on the Warren-Manette bridge loop. I ran slowly to test my leg and see how it was feeling. Sunday night at softball I slid in the dirt and tore up my right hip a bit, then that night it swelled up and was really, really painful and tender all around my upper leg. (And we lost the softball game.) Monday morning I was limping around. After ice and soaking it with peroxide it's calmed down, and just stung on the run more than anything. An annoyance, but nothing structural to worry about. In any case I ran pretty easy, just getting a few last runs in before Ragnar.  37:50.

What are you doing, try to be a baseball hero or something?

I dropped on in the outfield the inning after the stupid slide, then got benched. I'm just trying not to get kicked off the team.

Try some arnica cream. It is very good for bruising.
