I Don't Wanna Be A Cowboy
I'd been warned by Jonesy about getting sore glutes from lots of walking, but I had no idea it would be this bad. I pulled up okay from the 2 1/2 hrs on Saturday, and after doing 7k on Sunday morning (Cribb St up to Kelvin Grove for the Walk Without Fear rally and then from there over to West End). I think it was the walk up to the top of the hill at Mt Coot-tha and back that afternoon that did me in.
I felt okay at the time, it wasn't until Monday morning the pain hit. Still I did 6k on the bikeway and then was planning another 4k on the treddy at the gym in the arvo to make it a nice round 10k for the day. But after 2k I'd had enough and had to resort to the bike to see me through to the end of The Bold & The Beautiful.
I'm walking like John Wayne ..... well, like he used to walk when he was alive.
I'm feeling pretty confident that the physio will give me the go-ahead this arvo to start running again. The SIJ pain has almost disappeared, or maybe its just the gluteus hurteus has taken my mind off it.

If you haven't got the 'six shooters' hanging from your hips to back it up the cowboy swagger is not a good look.
I like the cover story and almost bought it. (My next sentance would get me in toruble, so I resist)
Nice work pilgrim ;-)
Noice ;-) I love a sexy swagger! Sounds like a good time to be off your feet up there at the moment! Make sure you take care when running!!!
I thought it was "I don't want to be a cowgirl"?
It's crazy isn't it? I pull up sore aswell when we do pack marches at work, striding out up hills really does the damage but.
If you like, I have some welding chaps at work you can borrow, you may feel more at ease if you look the part ;-)
Fingers crossed the physio gives the go-ahead.
Talk about a walk on the wildside, all good training for PMC ;-)
The John Wayne walk is not a good look. That's me the morning after every 6' training run.
I had a bit of the John Wayne walk going myself on Monday after doing the Pyramid on Saturday. Funny thing is that on Sunday I felt fine - so much so that I went for a run.
Yeeha, that's some lotta k's there pilgrim.
Who would've thought! I guess i don't walk fast enough or for long enough to suffer DOMS!
