Hip pain and back pain conditions are often interrelated, and there's often a nasty domino effect of injuries. For example, tense lower-back muscles can contribute to piriformis syndrome which in turn can cause inflammation of the sciatic nerve. Not only can this be a painful experience, but it makes it rather difficult to track down the source. Often, these injuries in the hip or buttock tend to cascade from lower-back strain or injury. Hip Pain can also be caused by a pelvic imbalance. This occurs when you get rotation of the pelvic bones. You should be able to run pain free at distances greater than 10k. A lot of times a biomechanical fault in the feet or the knees can aggravate these conditions, orthotics can sometimes help this situation a great deal.
