IT'S HARD TO RUN....
..... when you can't move your leg backwards or forwards.
Nevertheless, I just got in an hour's worth, probably a little sort of 6 miles, with teeny little short steps that weren't all that uncomfortable or even any slower than my usual.
But I'm behind in my distance plans now, and I can't do the speedwork in the FIRST program as I had hoped for an April marathon. In fact, I might not make an April marathon at all.
Thanks to Vickie and Sheila for tips and links to fixing my butt :-) And runr53 for suggesting massage therapy -- I called one and left a message, but she must be away for the holidays. I'll try her again. I think the piriformis muscle is the one complaining. I think it would complain less if I spent less time sitting on it, too, in front of the computer.....

If it is the performis less sitting will definetly help. I had that earlier in the year and it's pretty miserable. Vicki suggested rolling around on a tennis ball. It hurts like h*ll but it works. Good luck with it.
Have a fantastic new year.
