Sock tans

Today was on our own, I did dikes and canyon run once we got back from Zion. About 6 miles in my hip started to hurt again.

Warmups, form mile. Then warmed up a mile. Workout was 5x1000s with 90 seconds rest. I got through 3 of them, then my hip started killing. On the 4th I did 500 meters then went straight to the training room. Haley says my hips aren't aligned properly. She reset them and told me to stretch, ice and take ibuprofen.

Had class right before practice, so I couldn't come early to the training room. I went there instead of doing warmups and Haley realigned my hip. Then got out in time to run like 200 meters and then do the stretches. Then did the form mile. Hip was bugging, especially on the turns. It would sometimes be a sharper pain than the ache. It wasn't super intense pain like my knee has been in the past. But I could feel that was favoring it. So Haley told me to get on the stationary bike. I biked for 40 minutes with Koi. Then did some stretches Haley showed me and afterwards she attached me to the STEM machine, felt weird and hurt for the first couple minutes but after that it felt good. Did that for 15 minutes. Hopefully my hip feels better soon.

Went to the training room before practice and Haley reset my hip. She said that if I didn't feel any pain on the warmup I could do the workout. Did the warmups and form mile and it was feeling alright. Felt a little discomfort but not pain. When splitting into groups Coach told me to just go for a run. I was a bit disappointed, I wanted to do the workout (it was a tough one today but idk I just wanted to do it). I won't be doing tomorrow's workout either because Coach said I have to go 2 days without pain before hopping back into workouts. It was probably smart though because I wouldn't want to make things worse by jumping into things too quickly. So I did 6 miles at 7:42 average. Was surprised actually with how much my hip has improved from yesterday.

Hip was feeling great today, I even said to Maddy when going into the training room "it doesn't feel like my hip is out today." Sure enough, Haley said it was in! I was stoked. Unfortunately I still had to go two days without pain before I could do any type of speed, so I was super disappointed when I found out they were doing the 6 minute test today. I had heard about it a while ago and was really looking forward to the day we'd be doing it. But it's okay we're bound to do it again sometime, it just sounded really cool. I did the warmups and form mile, and the warmups and cool downs. It was fun to watch!

Did Cross Hollows, 7:32 average. To give some perspective fastest mile was 7:00 and slowest was 8:09. It's gotta be the wind and hills!
