Stress fracture diagnosed today in femoral neck. Been off a month, and will need another month or two off.

Tried to run this morning, but still am having very bad pain in hip flexor region. I limped for 400 meters before quitting. Thought it might loosen up, but that didn't happen! Think this one is going to take a few weeks to heal. :( At least I've gotten in some decent summer races.

This will be my 3rd day off for the hip flexor issue. Shouldn't have run Saturday or Monday, but was being stubborn. Now I'm paying for it! Looks like I won't be doing the ATM now as Izzy flight home is scheduled for 4 October.
