I Can Do Hard Things

MCT west to east with Brittanie and Karen at 5:00am.  59 degrees - HEAVENLY.  My hip has been bothering me since last Friday.  I'm not sure what is going on since it was a cut back week and I did lots of lifting.  But I started that anger cycle...ha ha.  

I took some Advil before the run and it actually felt alright. I didn't feel wrecked like I did during the last 18 miler.

Discovery Park to Melissa's street - 61 degrees.  Walk with a little bit of running.  Legs were heavy after yesterday's run/lift.  PT with Mark - pubic symphasis was off.

Drinking fountain sprints - 64 degrees.  I saw PT Mark yesterday and my hip flexor is already feeling so much better.  I'm feeling so grateful!!

My first .87 was totally slow.  I should probably start with some strides to help open up the legs.  But I was in a hurry since it is the first day of school.  But all the other splits were faster than last week and I didn't feel like I was going to die!!
