| AM - 3 miles with Dan and the dogs on the trail. Finally seeming to come out of the URI and starting to feel normal. Ran in the old Saucony Rides and discarded the NB Fuel Cell shoes - which I think aggravated the hip on Saturday. Still some swelling there, but the run was tolerable for the hip. A little stiff after I showered and headed out to an appointment, but by midday, seemed like it is progressing well, if not slower than I want.

| AM - 4.25 miles with Dan and the dogs at Milton HS. Had a decent run today - wearing the old school Rides. Hip was tolerable - but not yet normal.

| AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and the dogs from his house doing the normal route along the horse farm roads. I wore the Alphafly Nike's this morning and I had very little if any left hip pain, but because it is still a little swollen, the range of motion is a little restricted. Dan's dog was really not in the mood for running a third day in a row, and as a result the pace was slower - which honestly was of benefit to me to keep from potentially pushing too much. Finally got a full night's rest without coughing. Heartrate on this effort was nearly back to normal after being so high the last week or so. New bruising I noticed yesterday, was likely from Saturday's run in the NB shoes which are now in the garbage can, and it expanded a bit over the day yesterday in the upper part of the hip. So strange...never had a muscle or tendon strain with such marked bruising in all my years of running.

| AM - 4.5 miles with Dan and Finn in the neighborhood. Dan, feeling unencumbered by slow Rosie ran a bit faster than I wanted to, as I am being cautious not to cause any further issue with the hip. We kept it right at or below 9 min pace as a compromise. Honestly, I am actually quite pleased with the progress of the injury - feels like I am a week or so away from resuming normal training volumes.

| AM - 5.25 miles with Dan and the dogs from his house onto the horse farm trail roads. Ran in the Rides again. Good that we ran with Rosie who kept pace easier than I would have probably pushed. I am perhaps a little impatient to feel "normal" - the hip is remarkably improved perhaps only slight discomfort, but functionally still not 100% with some weakness. I am also still dealing with a cough with a virus that has not exited my system yet. Hopefully I will gradually improve day to day to get back to feeling myself on runs.
