I haven’t run since Wednesday night and plan to run for an hour later this afternoon/evening. I’ve found much success taking a short hiatus from running before a big race. At the end of a taper (especially preceding a marathon), I have no qualms about taking 3 days off. Today, my legs feel very refreshed, but I do still notice an irritation in my left hip. Again, I attribute this irritation to NOT running. Either way, the hip has never had any effect on any race results.
