Notes
Started out walking and felt some discomfort in my right hip but this dissipated as I warmed up. Started fast walking after .5 mi. and then alternated with walking ended my walk/fast walk with close to running for last 400 meters. My hip didn't actually as much this am as it did yesterday.(14.49, 13.25, 13.30, 11:45).
This is extremely frustrating when everything inside of me is saying ... "What is this?" "... feel like a sissy!" Got a cortisone shot at clinic.
Listened to Matt Fitzgerald on Matt Johnson podcast - liked what I heard and ordered Matt F's new book (Sep 2nd release) "80/20 Running: Run Stronger and Race Faster by Training Slower"
Will have to see what the next few days hold and the affect that the shot has. Will continue to diligently do the exercises and work out with the Pro Foam and gradually mix in more running with walking.
Figure I'll stick with the 5k distance until i feel I can manage longer - maybe ad a mi. at a time on second day but space this out a bit.
