Week 8 pains

I am now on week 8 and doing better than I ever imagined. I have for the last 2/3 runs now felt discomfort in only one of my hips towards the last 5 min of the run. Just wondered if anyone else experienced this?and whether it’s just down to the body adjusting to the longer runs as it’s quite painful.

Just make sure you're running slow enough there's a lot of endurance needed now in wk7 take you time hopefully the pain will go . I had pain in my right thigh , I do walking on my rest days and it went away on its own, maybe yours will to, good luck
