Cutting back

So I've decided I'm going to cut back a little bit on the mileage these next couple weeks in order to get my hip to heal and get somewhat back to normal. I'm so disappointed because I was feeling so great and starting to really get back into good running shape but oh well that's life I guess :(
Today wasn't a bad day and the worst part is, is that once I do get going on my run my hip feels almost normal but then its when I'm doing other things that it will really bother me. For instance, it hurts more to walk and climbing out of the pool when I'm teaching swim lessons to show the kids how to do something doesn't feel very good either. But as long as I am able to keep up the daily runs I am fine with it. And I figure it might be good for me to take a few weeks easy on the running and instead do other cross training activities to keep things nice and mixed up.  During my run today I ran a couple miles to the gym from my house then I did my workout there and finished the run with a mile home and walked the rest of the way. I'm also hoping to add in a few different types of workouts this semester so we'll see how all that goes.

I hope everyone has a great weekend and I'll keep you posted on my hip issues.
