"It's not the years... it's the mileage"

So there's limitations to my hip adductors theory. I'd been encouraged that just doing what I now call a "reset" of my left hip by doing some adductors, doesn't guarantee no psoas inflammation. This past week I've run a consistent 3.3-4.4 miles every day, but towards the end my psoas has flared up anyway. Last night, I got only 2 miles before it flared up, and was quite painful to walk home. This morning, it was still a bit sore and I walked to the Sunday morning ocean swim, and walking back it was getting more inflamed still. Let's see what a couple days off does...

  1. Hey Rick. Thanks for sharing all your stories. I'm getting my hip resurfaced in a few weeks. I was just wondering with all your training, runs, etc have you had any issues with your resurface tip? It seems you put a tremendous amount of mileage on it which is good news. Looking forward to hearing back. Hope you're well and healthy.
