First run

First run in several days. Since last Wednesday to be precise. Whew. I hurt my right hip flexor last week, probably doing something on the treadmill. I hobbled around for a few days and decided against running on it, as it hurt when I walked. Anyway, yesterday, it hardly hurt at all walking so I decided to do a nice, slow, and easy run today. 4.4 miles, no time, but probably close to a 10 min/mile. I wanted to run slow and easy to avoid re-injuring my hip.

I guess I should stick to a 10-20% increase per week, huh? I've been all over the place with my weekly mileage, but I think I should keep it at 20-25 for awhile before trying to increase it.
