Crossing My Fingers

Today is the day that I set as the deadline to start training again if I'm going to take part in the Cherry Blossom 10 Miler. I went to the gym at lunch. Stretched a little. Did some core strengthening exercises. Jogged a mile. Stretched some more. So far, no pain (6 hours later). Also, I didn't take any ibuprofen at lunch, which means I would feel any pain. I'm crossing my fingers hoping that this will hold out.

P.S. A great outer hip (abductor) exercise: tie a stretchy band in a loop, put it around your ankles, and shuffle one direction for 10 ft. Rinse and repeat in the other direction.
