5 miles at 41:52, so just under 8:30 pace. Very windy. Blister is healing up well and I can run with a simple band aid on it. Tussey Whipple 11 miler was today and I wanted to get out there with the family but church obligations kept us in town this morning.... I'm feeling more positive about upping the mileage in the next few months. Last few months have been tough...mostly painful ligaments in the hip joint, on the front side. Worse on the left. I noticed my left leg was weaker than my right, so I've been doing a few stretching and strength exercises before bed. Seems to be helping somewhat. |
