I ran 4.4 with the dog at a 7:30 pace this morning. Then I dropped him back home and finished the run as a 3/1 (7:07, 6:55, 6:46, 6:36, 6:14). I didn't push too hard because I want to do 400's tomorrow, and still being only a little over two weeks from my last marathon an easy run is a good choice for today.

I kind of have soreness near my groin or inner thigh, which would be the adductor muscles. I think it started bothering me a week after the last marathon. I can feel the soreness when I run and a little after each run, and not sure what to do since I've never had this soreness before. I thought maybe massage therapy would be a good idea? It doesn't affect my running in anyway, but I can just feel the soreness when I run.

Keep an eye on that groin. It may be nothing and just go away, or it may be the beginnings of a groin strain. I had a groin strain last year that lasted for nearly 5 months. It started small, but the pain increased to where I could not run (or roll over in bed, for that matter).

I had a massage therapist work on it several times, and although it was extremely painful, the massage helped it a lot.

The other thing you can do is increase the strength of your adductors. There are several weight-room exercises that help it, or even something as simple as a Thighmaster or therabands can help at home.

Thank you Paul I really appreciate the information that really does help out a lot. I will monitor the issue and see how things are in the next week. I'm not even sure if that's the muscle that is sore, it's hard to tell. But a good massage would be a good idea anyway.

By the way very nice legs you did in the relay. I hoped to get fast enough someday to join you guys.
