2. Yeah, I know what you mean.

I need to work on my core, I think, and my posture.

I was out just now (first time outside in weeks, because of weather and work schedule) and the pain came back again, around the 2 mile mark, which was about where it started the other day. I stopped, walked through it, and decided as an experiment to do one mile, trying to keep a straighter posture while breathing more deeply. That helped.

I'm going to find some core exercises.

It also doesn't help either that I seem to have lost some of the endurance I had built up, because of weather and work. It's frustrating, but I keep telling myself it's temporary -- spring and longer days are coming.

Thanks for the advice.
