Saw Ross Osland about my hip. He put everything back in place in my legs and back/neck. Reckons they may just have missed the correct spot with the injection and another shot would perhaps work. Said he won't be surprised though if I've got some arthritis in the hip as well.
Anyway felt a bit better and I'll ring my Dr again Monday.

So only lasted two days off antiflammatories.
Wanted to give my body a break and see how I went but toe became worse and hip was terrible.

Spent a couple of hours mapping East Maitland map for Nicola's StreetO. Started doing a bit of jogging but in the end hip so painful couldn't bring myself to get out of a walk :(

Tried hard; hip pretty painful. Even drove over to the toilets prior to starting because my hip was hurting and I didn't want to jog over. Seems stupid knowing I was going to put it through 45 mins of running anyway!!!
My route: 1E 2G 3E 1F 1G 2D 3A 3C 1A 2H 2C 1C 3B 2A 1D 3D 2J 2E 1J 1R 2K = 39
This was a good score so must have been lucky with route choice.

Run inspired by Josh. Felt lazy for not getting out there, so thought I'd run over to where he was doing some stuff. Hip really painful all the way :(

"Manly Dam"
Well as StK66 concurred, my effort could hardly be called "Sprint" orienteering!! haha
Obviously exit direction was my main issue, particularly after #2 and #3. Even missed the big grey bare rock area leaving #3 and ended up scrambling through the bush, and the green was certainly green!!!! Also had a bit of trouble at #10.
Really enjoyed it, and will certainly make the trip for more of these events during the hols :)

Ran from home to check the map for Rhi and Nic's StreetO in a couple of weeks. Gone an hour, but reckon there was about 10 mins of walking, map correcting and hip stretching.
Pretty disappointed that the hip is so much worse today. Don't understand it. Even thinking that walking around on hard surfaces and sweeping yesterday have aggravated it ????? :(
