Seven miles for my Monday morning run with some cows within the discipline subsequent to me.
It has been just a few weeks since my final REAL pace work session and I’m lacking it dearly. So not too long ago, anytime I pace up (speaking low 7’s and 6’s) my proper hip flexor/hip begins bothering me. It isn’t loopy unhealthy however it’s unhealthy sufficient that it feels tight the remainder of the day and it makes me somewhat nervous in the course of the run. After I run at extra of a conversational tempo I don’t discover it in any respect… bizarre. Josse goes to scrape it quickly and I’m going to have Dr. B have a look at it however I’d reasonably maintain it protected than be sorry as a result of I NEED TO KEEP RUNNING (I’m not being demanding in any respect;). I’ll see what he says and go from there however simply maintain operating the miles that really feel good and have some endurance (a runner’s least favourite phrase). However not less than I’m nonetheless operating glad, I simply wish to maintain my physique glad… not going to go down the damage street once more. Josse is simply popping out of an ankle drawback so we will get our pace again collectively after we are prepared which makes me glad. Having somebody to do the exhausting stuff with is the perfect. Distress (aka each muscle burning/lungs eager to explode/endorphins going like loopy) loves firm:)

I pumped solely with Brooke (she wouldn’t latch on very properly however LOVED the bottle so I simply did that) and I’m undecided why I misplaced my milk when she was 4 months outdated however it may very well be due to that or due to stress (there was rather a lot at the moment in my life) or due to not hydrating properly and so forth.
