Personal:

I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10.  I've been running since 1982.  I never get "basic" injuries.  I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping  down on my peroneal nerve.

Managed just 11 minutes on the Octane.  Just didn't feel well and pretty sore from yesterday.

Ran a pretty strong 6.5 miles from home down around Collet Park and back, same as Sunday night in 45:09.  Had 22:29 half way.  Had a really strong 15 mph N headwind w/ rain/snow mix on the way back.  Face and lower legs were numb when I finished and the rain drops were so huge it hurt on my face.  But, no pain whatsoever, brief tenderness in piriformis and left hamstring the first mile.

No running today.  Yesterday morning as I got into the car, I felt pain in my adductor, original pain in the original location when I first got injured.  So, didn't do anything at all yesterday except stretching.  So, tonight, did 99 minutes on the Octane.  No pain during workout whatsoever.  Will see how it feels in the morning.  Really really tough doing the Octane tonight.  Going 99 minutes was kind of accepting "it's going to be a while..." rather than an off-day 30 minute workout...

Ran a really tough 2+ miles out at Hawthorn Park today.  Was wanting to go about 45 minutes, but just didn't feel all that great.  No pain or irritation during run.  Time 16:38

Ran a really tough 6.5 miles from home down around Collet Park and back in 47:50.  Started out feeling pretty decent, first mile in 7:11, then hit the marathon wall just 10 minutes in and struggled to jog in the rest of the way.  Pretty disgusted but did make the whole run with no adductor pain.  Piriformis is still giving me problems.  Temp pretty cool 32 at sundown.  A couple of hours later, still no pain, so we'll see what it feels like in the morning.

Did not run yesterday and won't be doing anything today either.  Things felt OK all day yesterday except my piriformis.  Then I attempted to do the Octane, but just didn't feel well, so only did like 3 minutes on it, called it a day.  Later in the evening about 11:30, adductor started feeling really irritated and it just got worse as the night went through.  Kept me up until 5 am, still hurts today, but not as much.  It hurt worse last night than it did when I first injured it.  Primary pain was near middle of my femur, like it was when I first injured it.  I'm wondering if it really isn't a stress fracture or stress reaction now...  Just don't understand why it would take 30 hours after I had last run for any pain to show up, and the way it did...
