A beautiful day for running.  I really enjoyed it, but sadly still have joint pain in the left hip.  I'm just trying to tune it out.  It seems more like discomfort as opposed to real pain . . .so I think I'm just going to keep going with it.

Hi, You sound like a lot better runner than I am, but I've started running again after a 4-5 month "running drought".

Do you still have your hip pain? A few years ago I had a lot of pain in my hip while (and after) running. (I'm not sure why it started - may have been a combination of running on too much of a camber, and running in a compensated fashion since I had a sore hamstring.) I rested a bit, then started running on a treadmill to remove the camber element. I also eased into a good stretching routine, and especially stretched the sides of my hips. So far, I've been lucky and the hip pain has stayed at bay (knock on wood).

In any event, good luck with your runing and hope you made it running into your 90's!
