BIKE COMMUTE 13.8 miles
Well today was my first test of the hip/ab/groin injury, and I'm feeling much better about things afterwards. No, it still hurts. But yes, I think I can get this
A sushi-powered run (he says protein good to heal my hip, we'll see) (I can't argue the logic though), post-rain and nice and cool. The sun's slow hesitancy to rise as summer deepens now means that we don't see direct sunlight until later in the run. Boo for shortening days.
I got a walk lap in, another walk lab, then started a brief jog partway in. I was nervous to start, knowing that it would either open or close a door I needed to get through either way.
Careful start, and it hurts but right now it's in the 'really uncomfortable' zone and not in the pain zone. Is that denial?
We did almost a nothing workout. Jog a lap, walk 100 meters. Do some light run drills. (amazingly, the run drills hurt LESS than running?!) Lots of chatting. Last night at the Muny he saw Paint Your Wagon, and I got asking about how much freedom a local theater has to alter/update a production. Like, can they do a Paint Your Station Wagon to make it 1970 instead of 1870? Haha, sometimes yes!
A few hours later, typing this, I'm aware of the area, it's a little more uncomfortable than yesterday, but it's OK.
Oooh that's denial.

Blood work today for comprehensive metabolic and lipids. I've been a bit stressed on this, feeling like it's a test I need to pass. It's out of mind for the most part, now that the blood draw is done there's nothing I can do to change the result. Like there was anything I could do anyway to change the result? It is what it is.
But I keep thinking if it comes back with high LDL levels, what then!?
