I am suppose to do my first real trail race on Saturday. But my hip has been bothering me since last week. I think maybe it's bursitis. It fits the on line description anyway. Funny, it seemed to be cycling that pushed it over the edge though. Yesterday it hurt so badly, I didn't even want to go to work. Rest, ice and Advil seem to be helping.

The race is a 10K and because of all the rain we've had, they may move it onto the road. The mud out at the reservoir is super slippery. If it becomes a road race, that will make it easier to decide to stay home if I don't think I've recovered enough.

The trouble with bursitis is apparently it is reoccuring. "Don't do what causes the pain." Great, except I want to run and ride. It's got a week to get better, before I go see the doctor.
