I can now say that I have visited an osteopath--and wow, let me just say there was never a dull moment. I've had some hip and leg pain that needed addressing, and I was hoping a simple mechanical fix might be in the offing. I was not disappointed. I had to bend over from the waist, get on the table and bring my knees up, flip over and back again several times, push against hands or shoulders or do whatever resistance thing I was supposed to do while the doctor and a medical student in training fiddled with my hip and pelvis--it was positively action-packed! Apparently the right side of my pelvis was out of whack, so they attempted to bring it back into line. It does feel better--although I was warned that adjustments are like concrete and need time to set. I am supposed to take three days off. That means I can't run again until Saturday! Augggh! But I suppose it's better to miss a few days now than get to the point where I can't run at all later.
I did get in today's run before I went to the osteopath, running 2 miles in 20:40.
Already feeling very antsy about being out of commission for a few days.
