I woke up before class this morning and was able to complete my daily requirements before class. When I went to class, my hips really started to hurt. other than that, class was pretty good. My hips continued to hurt after class but they soothed down as the day went on. I practiced my creative form and I feel ready to perform it, I am feeling super good on the way it turned out. I plan to go on a run later this evening but I don't want to push it too hard so my hips don't become inflamed again. After my run, I plan to let my body recover for the rest of the evening.
