Oh boy, how to catch up? Well simply, there's not much to say. Everyday I think about updating here, but since moving I've been on a different schedule. And I don't have internet at home, so I'm only using it at work. And this isn't a very high priority at work! But I have a few minutes now. So here goes.
I ran 4.25 miles on Tuesday the 29th, that's my most recent entry. Then nothing as I moved the weekend of Oct 2nd. It was a needed break, and I was so busy that running would have been more stressful.
So the Tuesday after the run, my first day of the New Normal, I took off to map my new Lafayette Park route. I was feeling good, my hip pain was quite minimal all weekend even with all the sleeping on the floor (3 nights!), box carrying, and stairs. The run was feeling good too, only minor hits of a niggle in the hip. But then after turning around at Park Ave, right around 2.8 miles in, WHAM -- PAIN-- and I've been hurting ever since.
It's the 16th! That was the 6th! I was limping the rest of the week, still mildly limping through the weekend, and still with a soreness that could lead to a limp right now.
No stairs at work, minimal stairs at home. Walking the dog over a mile gets painful. Some days are better than others. All chances of OT100 are gone, the deadline to register on the 14th has come and gone. Pacing TV isn't even a real possibility.
I don't have test results back yet, but I expect them any day. They'd better be conclusive, whatever the answer is I don't know if I care, but I do care that that it's conclusive. It'd better be worth all this.
Surprisingly, I'm doing OK. I'm not depressed. I've set my sights on Poto 100 in April.
In the meantime, I'm enjoying my new commute!
Week of the 28th: RUN 4.25 miles and bike 12.8.
Week of the 5th: RUN 5 miles and bike 48.8
