I should post about my groin more often...I get great comments when I do.
Thursday, I did 30 min on a stationary bike (no problems, except in the dressing room putting my shorts on which hurt like hell) and by the end of it felt loose enough to try a little light jogging. I managed 0.25 mile before it was clear I wasn't ready for that yet.
Friday was rest, except for walking.
Saturday I did a 3-mile dogwalk in the morning, and felt good so I hit the gym, did some weights, and then figured I'd give the treadmill another whirl. Started very slow, felt good, and gradually ramped up my speed. Was a little tight through the first 15 minutes, then felt fine. Ended up finishing 5 miles in 43 minutes (typically this takes me 38-40). So that's pretty good.
No pain since.
I should mention I was taking ibuprofen at 3x 800mg/d the whole time, and am now tapering that off.
Still don't know what the hell this was/is, but the intensity of the pain and the rapidity of (apparent) recovery don't really make much sense to me. But I'm not complaining.

ok, now that you mention how it ended up, i think you shook the maracas a little too hard.
its happened here, and the cure was the same.
rest, mostly.
