Day 2 in Corpus, I had considered a workout but with the heat and my hip still sore that wasn't going to happen. Hard to get the legs cranked up for that at 6 a.m. anyway. This time I went toward the big bridge, ran a circle around a Houston Astros minor-league baseball stadium then came back through a sketchy industrial stretch. Eventually made my way back to the shoreline and finished up the run by running an out and back on the one of the marinas. Then 5x100 striders. Same heat as the day before (it would get up to 101) and same red eye in the sky as the sun came up. It's really cool. 44:00 or so. Hip loosened up, not feeling so much pain. Stretched again pretty good, and took Thursday off after a second long day of meetings and late night of travel. So no real workout this week because I'm trying to be ready for a longer run Saturday. But feeling healthier (and not dead from the South Texas heat) is worth it.
