I keep icing and heat on the injury along with a lot of stretching, things are feeling a lot better but I'll give it another day or two before running, 20 mile road ride that felt awesome!!!!!! I really need to keep crosstraining as part of my overall training process.

Wow I'm back on the road again!!!!!! Not at 100% but things are doing a lot better. I did a walk half mile/ run half mile thing this morning and things felt pretty good. After a couple weeks off things really felt weird though. I've got an appointment Tuesday with an womam who's speciality is injury massage. I hoping she'll get be back up and going for good.

Morning workout at the gym before work

Tried to run again this afternoon walk/run thing but this time I'd walk .25 the run a mile. I cut it short because of the leg. I started to feel it in the IT band area around the knee so I went home and iced it and it feels OK this morning. I'm not as far along as I thought (hoped) I was.

Another week gone by and another disappointment. Things are getting better but at a snails pace.  Tried the walk/run thing again this morning. The root of my problem is the piriformis muscle.I guess it's slow to heal even with all the stuff I'm doing to help it along.What's amazing is I have very little problem with it when I'm biking.

15 mile road ride after the rain stopped 17.4 mph avg(road bike)

I've had to work a bunch the last two days so I left work early and went by the gym today for a workout and actually ran, yes ran on the treadmill. I started out with and 1/4 warm up then ran 3.75 at what ended up a <8 pace. Then I went to my doctor and MT and they thought everything was looking better.

Piriformis and hamstring didn't feel right this morning. They felt great yesterday but after I went to bed they bothered me all night. I set out to a run this morning but changed my mind after they didn't loosen up and opted for a nice an easy road ride on the hybird 15 miles@15.2 mph.

Went down town with my wife and daughter and ran around the blocks as they walked. So it was was walk .10 run .50 most of the time. Not really sure what to think ????????
