I have gone from being a couch potato to walking 4 miles a day. My goal is 13.1 miles for a half-marathon. Today my former stoma site hurts whenever I move. Does anyone have a guess as to why this is happening?

Good for you! Walking is the best! It sound like u might have adhesions. Can't see them on X-rays, but they can pull like rubber bands. Only way to get rid of them is thru surgery. Then of course you end up with more. Try massaging the area and a heating pad. Give yourself a rest every other day to heal. Good luck! When & where is the marathon?
Good advice! I did a massage but it was really the heating pad that worked wonders.
I increased my distance only .5 miles today but I can really feel it. I am sooooo out of shape.
The half marathon is the CCFA Team Challenge in Las Vegas Dec. 2.
Tomorrow is strength and cross training, followed by a lovely day of rest.
