A few months ago I mentioned that I was burnt from running and needed a break. When I said "a break" I didn't mean an injury causing break!
The hip is still bothering me. I originally decided to take the "5-Day Approach" to dealing with this hip issue. Today is day four and I think it's fair to say that I should just make a decision. I'm not confident that another 24-hours is gonna make that much of a difference.
Sunday was definitely better than Saturday and Monday was better than Sunday....but my progress seems to have plateaued. Then again...I'm pretty impatient.
Yesterday, I headed to my buds at the gym to have them give me their assessment, since there is a group that specializes in injury recovery and they have known me for forever. I know they'll tell me the truth. After looking at my stride, hearing my story and stretching me around --- all were glad to hear that there had been positive improvement over the last few days, still agreed with the 5-7 day approach, but there was a resounding three votes that a visit to the doctor likely in my future.
It's a bummer that I'm still limping a bit, but at least it's not as bad as Sunday.
