I'm learning a few valuable lessons during my break:

1. Stay off Facebook. I have a tendancy to see what other runners are doing (or not doing) and get caught up in the hype. I need to listen to my own body and forget everyone else.

2. Take meaning breaks. After every marathon and training cycle, I HAVE to take some time off running. I'm realizing just how important this is to MY being successful.

3. Strength training is not optional any more. I feel like I've upped my ST game a lot in the past few years. But I need to up it again.

I meet with the surgeon on Friday to decide if I need my hip scoped. I am NOT in the "frantic panic". I was so burned out and broken. I've been sleeping A LOT and feel like my body is healing. REST is essential!

I met with the hip surgeon's PT today at TOSH. I was super impressed with her. She went over in detail my different options. We decided to do an injection into the hip socket with a round of PT as a last conservative resort. OK. I have done a lot of PT, but I haven't done it with a cortisone injection.
