Thanks goodness it's never been #2! But, that may because I won't run outside if the coffee hasn't done its job yet. <br />Hope the hip gets better- I've had hip problems (unrelated to running) my whole life, so I know they suck. DO THE PT. It will help, no matter how boring it is. I had to put up with it for over a year before my left hip would stop dislocating just from sitting down (and here's where we return to bathroom humor)- often at the worst times, like on public toilets. I can't tell you how many times I've been in a department store and had to try to get my pants back up and my hip back where it should be. PT IS WORTH IT! I haven't had those issues in a few years.

I run on old country roads near my house- and most of the time I have to GO NOW! so I dart into the weeds or a field and take care of business, and get on with my run. The other day I darted into the weeds and A TRUCK CAME up the road and I was squatting- I could have DIED. I had to quickly weigh my options. 1. Could I duck down and hope they don't notice me (no!) 2. Quickly pull up my pants and act natural (totally what I did) or 3. Continue (never!) I was so freaked out I could not make eye contact with the driver as he drove by. (Another reason to wear sunglasses on runs.) I'm never going on that route AGAIN.<br />Kelly (blog-less because I don't want to get sucked in to the time warp of having a blog)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-12060716360813290782012-09-14T05:49:00.569-06:002012-09-14T05:49:00.569-06:00Please tell me you didn't carry the shirt back...Please tell me you didn't carry the shirt back to your house.
