Uh oh. I hurt myself. I went to Mexico to an all-inclusive resort (meaning that I could eat and drink all I wanted). I got on the treadmill with probably a few too many drinks in me. I felt a pain in my upper thigh, right below my hip. The next day I could barely walk. My MD sister says its greater trochanteris inflammation. So, I haven't done any exercise in four days. The biggest problem is that I have the National Marathon next Saturday, so I need to be healthy. I don't think I have ever gotten to the start line of a marathon without some kind of injury. Sigh.
I guess the lesson is just to relax on vacation. Yet, I feel better on vacation whenever I work out. In fact, I even try to time my vacations to coincide with marathons, so that I can participate in out of town events. So, perhaps there just isn't a lesson in this.
Monday run: 6 miles
