I think my chiropractor cursed me. I went in on Monday, and she said that my hips were tighter than she's ever seen in me. I told her I'd been running, and she showed me some stretches to help. I ran last night, and I did the stretches and this morning I'm in pain. My lower back hurts and I feel like an old woman. I've been moaning and groaning and limping all day. I think I must have run stupid, thinking about protecting my lower back and ended up hurting it instead. Ow!

Just remember... all the new stuff your doing with your body (no matter how you hold yourself) is going to make you sore for a while. You probably used different muscles when you were thinking about running "properly".
Just keep stretching and running (and getting adjusted - ACK, I'm so overdue to see my chiropractor!), and you'll get over the soreness hump.
I will be able to afford to go to the chiropractor now!!! I think I really need to go.
I've never been to a chiropractor. My friend Gem used to go because she has a disc missing in her back which makes it extra flexible and therefore gets out of alignment easily.
Hope you feel better soon!
I hope your back feels better. And stretching is one of the best things you can do for your body.
*hugs*
That's so annoying - sometimes it can happen even though you've warmed up and down perfectly well. Hope it goes away soon.
