Hey Folks! Sorry for the radio silence of late. A couple of quick tid-bits and more to come soon.
1) I’m injured. There I said it.. and it freaking sucks! My trail run 1/2 marathon in Palo Alto a few weeks ago, combined with all the walking I did while in the Bay Area, strained a hip flexor and developed a condition called “hip click syndrome”. Technical eh? It’s a bursitis of the hip flexor tendons that actually causes clicking when I lower my knee from a raised position. Running (well walking for that matter) has been completely wiped out and only in the last few days have I been able to walk about 2k without pain. Swimming has been ok, provided I haven’t kicked, and fortunately cycling has been unaffected.
The good news is that it does seem to be improving. Hopefully in the next week or so, I can start adding small runs back into my training schedule.
2) In the mail the other day a package from Finis arrived with an Aquapulse, a Swimsense, a swim cap and set of goggles. I’ve been testing the aquapulse in my masters swim classes and will be posting a comprehensive review over the weekend.
