So my sore butt saga continues. It's much better than it was on Monday but I still have a way to go yet. Ice (frozen peas), ibuprofen, and The Stick seem to be helping. I was able to sleep last night which I'm sure helped quite a bit. The previous two nights found me waking up frequently, trying to find a sleeping position that didn't hurt. The pain basically runs from my butt all the way down my hamstring, stopping just short of behind the knee. At this point, it is mostly just very tender through the hamstring with some intermittent pain along the butt bone.
I checked the Boston Athletic Association website last night and I can take an injury deferment if necessary and race in '09 instead. But who wants to do that? Honestly, I think I'm going to be able to run but it sure would be a much easier decision if the pain was either much worse or much better. It's this "yeah it's pretty sore but I think I might be able to do it" kind of pain that is the worst.
