Waited all day yesterday for the rain to clear, then took DS to my mom's house and went out from there. It's in the country, so it was beautiful. My original plan was to run for 6 miles, but I decided to go for 7. Got rained on miles 5-6, but I think it helped take my mind off the pain!

I had a great run last Saturday - 8.5 miles at a nice sustainable pace. Monday I woke up with my hip feeling like someone was jabbing me with a knitting needle! Hip bursitis - so much fun.
I missed my runs on Monday and Thursday and my trainer workout on Tuesday. I NEVER skip my workouts with Shawna! It's finally back to normal today, leaving me three days to get my monthly mileage goal.

Ugh V., glad it seems to have resolved quickly! Any idea what brought it on?
I did not-quite-14 today, first long run since the half. Really felt good in the cooler weather - physically anyway, and mentally at least I feel better than I did when I started! I set out to do not-quite-12, but there's an intersection that ALWAYS confuses me, as many times as I've run it [see why I need the mapping GPS on the bike?]. By the time I figured out I hadn't turned the way I meant to, I actually do know the roads well enough that I had a few options, so I chose a figure-8 route that would've let me do pretty close to the mileage I'd planned. When I got to the last turnoff I was feeling good enough to do the extra two.

No idea what caused it - rest, ice, Advil and compression tights have been my friend.
I'm sad - I accidentally washed my Thumps two weeks ago and Oakley doesn't make them anymore. They were really cool because they didn't actually sit inside your ear, so I could hear the music and my environment. And I felt really cool wearing shades on my treadmill runs at the gym.
I got a cheap knockoff pair from Amazon that I will try out tomorrow.

Oh, don't you know all the cool kids are wearing Kicker now anyway.

Got in a nice 5 mile run this morning. I was planning on 6 but my hamstrings were tightening up too much to continue.
The temperature was a nice 35 degrees. A very beautiful morning.
