My right hip miraculously stopped aching this morning. What a relief! I felt ready to run, but based on my personal experience, I didn't. I've learned that when you think you're recovered, give it more time. The mind can be very good at tricking itself into thinking everything is ok. Plus, another day or two of rest can only help.
Tomorrow, I am planning to make up the 3-mile run that was scheduled for today. I'll run until I feel anything at all in my hip, at which point I'll walk. As anxious as I am to get on with my marathon training, I have to be patient with this latest injury. An ounce of prevention now will be the key to whether I'm able to run in March.
