So what I'm doing is re-starting with C25K, but in week four -- enough running that it's doing me some good, but not so much that I'm going to strain anything. Awesome so far.

As much as it sucks, I think you are making the right decision. I had mentioned to Emily that you hadn't posted anything recently and wondered if you would still try to shuffle through the 1/2. But why experience a miserable 1/2? Especially when it's your first 1/2...and, I think you have the bug, so I would be shocked if there weren't finish lines in your future. The only question I have: Are you going to see a doctor?

I think that you are absolutely making the right choice, and it's so great that you are listening to your body. This could be a good time to focus on some cross training so that when you start training for your fall half marathon, you'll have a strong base. When I strained my hamstring a couple of years ago, I started swimming and biking...and as a result actually became a faster runner! Good luck and don't get discouraged! You'll get your half :)

Patrick: We talked on the phone. He said it's a muscle pull and that I should rest; I asked if I should come in and see him, and he said only if I wanted to pay my co-pay to hear him say the same thing (He added that I should come in if it's still bad at the end of the month).
Jennifer: I'll start with walking later this month. And my wife and I love riding; the city has a a great urban trail system we use a lot, so that part will be easy. And, uh, it's still a little early for swimming here, but soon ;)

First try since the 10K. The pain in the groin was immediate. I am screwed.

RUN
injured Abort, abort. 0.7 mi 00:13:00 18:34 pace
I've had fun joking about my nipples this week, but the groin thing is an actual problem. I couldn't go without a limp, and I couldn't do anything to get it to loosen up.

Smart move to bag the run. Limping through your miles is a great way to injure something else! I hope a day or two of rest helps!

I had another fight with Nike + today -- I lost -- so distance and time is approximate. Felt good, though, and I'm ready for something longer tomorrow.

No pain in my right foot. To say I am relieved would be an understatement.

Confession: This run was supposed to happen yesterday. Despite the weather (or maybe because of it) I finished with a pace I was pretty happy about.
