I'm Back

I haven't had the energy to get on and post the last little bit.  Graveyard shift has sucked the life out of me and the only thing I want to do is sleep.  I finished my last Graveyard shift last night.  I have 4 months before I rotate back to that dreaded shift!!!

I was also injured...still am...but I am feeling much better.  In place of running, I rode my mountain bike for the past week.  I really enjoyed that but still missed running.  Today was the first day I have ran since my last post on March 15.

About the "injury."  I don't really know what I did.    The muscle in my left "glute" started hurting.  I tried running through the pain and it just made matters worse.  So much so, that I was running awkwardly and I knew that wasn't good.    Stretching seemed to help a little, but I felt like it wasn't getting better.

Bike riding used a different set of muscles, so I didn't notice the pain too bad.  When I ran today, I took a long time stretching and warming up.  I started off feeling good, but by the end of the run, it was hurting badly again.  As I limped home, I noticed my left hip felt like it was popping in and out of joint.  I am calling the Chiropractor as I type.  Hope he can get me adjusted so I don't hurt when I run.

Any ideas on why the pain in my "glute?"
