I did 30 on the elliptical, and then thought I'd try my luck at running.  My groin was sore the whole time.  I tried stretching it out, but it's still sore 8 hours later.  It's hard to stretch and ice through out the day when I'm in a classroom with students and teachers.

I'm sure my spaz move of falling down the concrete stairs on my way to lunch in front of 400 teen-agers did as much good for my groin as it did for my self-esteem.  It's really been sore since that "smooth move."

But I firmly believe it's nothing that a little pain medicine and a few more weeks off of running can't cure.  I just hate not running.  I've got to get serious about healing though, or I'll never be able to keep up with RAD for the first 1/4 mile of the race :-)

Sorry about the fall - I did that once in HS, but it was at the volleyball awards in a camp we'd just finished..NICE!!

I'm glad to see you could run a little though, it may still be sore, but at least you got a couple in. Glad you've got that elliptical...I'm sure it helps to keep the boredom away.
