Ok...hmmm....catch up time.
Monday I did a slog, I mean an easy run and then went to PT where they had NO sympathy that I had done all my exercises at home the day before. After PT I had a massage at the clinic. The massage therapist was excellent, but took no prisoners, and got into my glute with her elbow. So Tuesday it was a bit sore.
Wed I was back for my final round of PT which went well, and had chiro after. The chiro was super aggressive in her stretching of the injured glute and it was a bit sore yesterday. And not in a good way. That dissipated during the day and I was able to run after work, but I could feel a little tug on the inclines. Dand it.
So now I am ready for everyone to BACK OFF MY GLUTE and take my PT matters into my own hands. I am taking a full rest day today and will try my trail run tomorrow. Hopefully they have not reawakened the beast and all will go well.
I think between PT at home and the foam roller and less aggressive ART, I will continue to get better.

Oooh, elbow to the glute, RnR, I cannot imagine!
That does sound aggressive!
Finally had a good run today. First time I've made it for the full 5K distance with no walking (after a walking warmup), and my time was faster than it's been in awhile (since Mexico) as well. I think the weather helped as it was cool (upper 50s), breezy, sunny, with low humidity. Helped my mood and seemed to help my running as well, or maybe I've finally done enough runs lately to start feeling a bit better. Yay!Emily

i got out for my first run/walk yesterday in at least 3 months. It was a gorgeous, sunny 60 degrees! So good to be outside. If only the nice weather would stick around.

Seven miles on the trails this morning. No issues. I could have kept going, but I am trying to be smart about increasing my distance post injury.
I was a bit concerned after the chrio on Wed. But I did not have any issues. Stayed off the big hills again and took it really easy, which is hard. It feels better mentally to run hard and push. I was going to add another 1/2 mile on next week, but my husband thinks that it might be wiser to hold steady at 7 miles next week and try a few of the smaller hills. Makes sense. Same distance but a bit harder.
