Weighing in - Day 3

So, I somehow gained yesterday. Back to 227.2. Damnit Jim! I am not too worried. I am fully expecting fluctuations from day to day. I did have to cut my run short yesterday (3.5 miles). I had my hip pain come back a bit yesterday. Not much, but I didn't want to push it and have bad pain like I did this last weekend. I spent 30 minutes stretching and using the foam roller to loosen up my right leg. I am hoping to be able to complete all 18 miles tomorrow, running.

Guess your 18 mile run should be done by now. Hope it went well!

It isn't unusual to have 1lb weight fluctuations daily. I've experienced the same thing.

Are you doing hip strengthening/stretching like in Runner-Core? After last year, I'm a big believer in how important hip strength/flexibility are to running.
