Since the weather is pretty cool outside I was able to sleep in a little later and then headed out. Did an out and back run, so 9 out and 9 back. Pretty boring but oh well. My left hip got some sharp pain around mile 10 and had to stop and stretch. Its has done it before but not for a couple years. Feels like its catching and it needs to pop. Went away after stretching. Had a couple pottybreaks and then saw Steve H. and stopped and chatted for a few minutes and then headed on home. Overall felt pretty decent. Avg pace 7:43

Good job you got your 60 for the week!

I'm glad you were able to sleep in a little. It might be your last chance for a while, but hopefully you'll be able to sneak these in occasionally. Watch that hip! I hope it is just one of those wierd pains that comes just for one run then goes away.
