Hip felt slightly better than yesterday but still is painful. During the run it feels okay, pain isn't that intense except for steeper hills. I'm still nervous to do faster paces, especially since the 400s on Monday really destroyed my hip. Pain yesterday was probably the same as if not more than it was when I first talked to Patrick. It's not locking up anymore, which is awesome, but the muscle itself is way more painful and I can actually point out the pain without having to move. Sooo, improvement? I'm not so sure. But if I can run through it I will. Maybe I'll just do 50% since I can handle those and then do workouts in the pool? I'll talk to Coach about it.
Another 50 today, relief. I thought it was going to be pickups or something, not sure my hip could've handled that. We did Main Street, which is more uphill, but we went at the slower end of the pace up the hill so it was fine. Downhill is okay so I cruised just fine at 7:00-7:10 pace on the way back. 7:29 average.
Weights: altered workout for me, 3x10 SL squats, 3x10 SL DB RDLs, 1x10 Clams (hurt so I stopped after 1 set). 3x10 green band (now green is thick, replaced purple bands) pull downs, 3x10 DB Row/Press ups, 3x10 half bent DB Rows.
