so week 4 was going so well when my hip has now started to hurt again - i suffered from hip bursitis last year and have been so careful with ice/heat and stretching and will be really gutted if this stops me again!

i have entered the race for life and received lots of sponsership so feel the pressure!! grrrrr

Find out from your gp if there is a drop in physio clinic nearby maybe? Definaty consult with whoever is your expert for the hip issue. At the least you'll have some advice. Also I found some information here that may help sportsinjuryclinic.net/spor.... Try a web search for (hip bursitis running) to see how you can protect yourself and seek medical help if necessary. Good luck!
