Personal:
I am a former runner who took the sport back up about 3 1/2 years ago. In the preceeding 20+ years I was a 2 pack a day smoker and the only excercise I recieved was summer softball. Needless to say; it was time for a change.
Tried to get off road with the beautiful weather today. Turns out portions of my run were in 2 inch mud. Ended up averaging 8:30's. with a tight hip and knee. Today's run may have been a mistake. We'll see how it feels tommorrow.
Woke up this morning and things are tight but not painful. I'll do some easy stretching and take the day off from running and see how it feels tommorrow. Worst case senario is I don't do the race on Saturday. It would be a bummer but better that than make it into a bigger problem. I guess I have to remember that it's still winter and not get to excited about a warm day here and there.
