In the clear to Run again!!!
Hurray!
I went to the doctor yesterday and got a prescription for anti-inflamatories, massage therapy, and physio. I also got the go ahead to go running again as much as I'm able without pushing myself --- once I start physio I'm to listen to the physiotherapist in terms of what's okay and what's not.
I saw the massage therapist today -- that woman ROCKS -- seriously - it was awesome. She was working primarily on my hips and shoulders -- the ULTIMATE combo for a massage...
I also joined the gym at school again -- in the name of not overdoing it I'm going to aim to run 2-3 times a week and cross-train another 2-3 days as opposed to just running 5 days a week. Hopefully that'll help keep my hips in check and my legs injury free. End of July I'm going to seriously start half-marathon training again --- probably with Hal Higdon's program this time.... We'll see -- I"ll update on that later.
