Running isn't gonna happen
So I tried intervals for 15 minutes on Wednesday, really took it slowly. 2 minutes walking, 30-45 seconds running. Today I did two minutes of walking then one minute of running for 25 minutes. I had to stop because I could feel it "starting" in my lower back/hip area. Then, within two hours, I was in real pain. By the time I got to physical therapy at 3:30, I was just crying. So disappointed, so frustrated. I mean - I didn't run for 13 weeks - shouldn't I be healed by now? Well - I'm not in any case. Bob (adorable physical therapist) says I'll bounce back much faster this time - but I am just so upset. If there was something I could DO to make this better... I go back to the orthopedist on Thursday, we'll see what he says.
I am SO heart-broken. I felt so good during those one minute running sessions. I can run MUCH faster than when I stopped 13 weeks ago.
I know this is a small problem to have, but it really gets me down.
I wonder if this extra skin hanging off the front of my body has anything to do with it??
