Definitely still a VERY active week – way to keep it going even without running!! Where do you bike?? I don’t even own a bike, but would love to get one in the near future so I have at least one other option on non-running days (soooo not an elliptical fan. my feet go to sleep).

hope the hip is feelin’ better soooon!

I had several months of PT the first time I injured my hip, and am trying to prevent going down the same road again this time. I use a foam roller constantly thanks to that first PT, though … I’m circus-freak flexible, which makes it hard to find a good stretch otherwise.

Thanks! In that picture, I was thinking, “I’m gonna puke, I’m gonna puke …” not sure if that makes it more motivational, or just more disgusting!

That sounds like a good training plan. Did your doctor prescribe any physical therapy? Are there stretches that can help your recovery?

I love stopping by your blog. Besides the articles, your banner photo is the best. It gets me fired up everytime! Good luck with the hip and great job on all the cross-training.
