I hadn't enjoyed running over the last few weeks as all I could think about was the pain at the top of my right femur when I pushed hard or on hills. Did a bit of self-diagnosis and I seemed to have fixed it! Turns out that my gait was waaay too narrow and so I have since been conciously running with a widened gait, which feels a bit like I'm running like a penguin. It's going to take a while before I run like this subconciously and get my speed back. Just need to stregthen my glutes, hip abductors and general core.
