Good But Painful!

Ran eight miles from the house around Lake Waukomis and back. Walked exactly a half mile, stretched the hips, and walked one minute to a minute and 15 seconds after each mile. Averaged 11:45 for all miles. Pain in left hip appeared just before completing mile six and was relagated to walking for another quarter mile. After that it was run slow, walk some more, repeat. Mile seven was better and mile eight was 10:02 and that includes walking some of it. Coming home the last four blocks were all in the high sevens. Ibuprofen and ice was on the lunch menu! Feel better now, but am concerned about the hip......Mike
