Good walk in Don Valley on beautiful day. Stiff from previous day's 9 hour on-my-feet session.

3 hours of walking/hiking in the Dundas valley for workshop courses plus another 6 hours on my feet. Felt surprisingly good but tired. Tougher to sit down for long periods.

Travel to Dundas for workshop. Was pretty wired after 6 hours on the road. Talked too fast, must have looked disorganized. Good sleep at T&C.

Rest day before trip to TO/HAM. Hip feels OK.

Another walk/run on Revelstoke loop. Glute cramped at start but loosened up after 2K. Felt pretty good at end. Ran fast enough that my quads actually felt stressed.

ended up walking with Doug and the wippets Wilson & Winne on the Revelstoke loop.
So had to say hello to every other dog walker and hold Winnie back from chasing anything that moves. When she saw a ground hog in a culvert she just went nuts! A 25 pound dog just about pulled my arm off!
Felt good in evening but should have stretched more - was tight when I went to bed.

A long awaited walk/run since the last injection. Felt fine during run. Glutes really stiff later. I have to apply the standing glute/periformis more often durning the run - even though it looks weird. 20-30 minutes of stretch/strengh every day becoming routine. Maybe not enough?
