I've been doing this for 3-4 years now
Eat very clean 80% of the time and only drink on Saturday nights
I'm just anal about my body and when you lose a ton of weight you freak out if you scale back or not work out that you will gain it all back. Unless you've been there its hard to understand

I understand. Now, have you thought about your piriformis?

i get it. i went from 220 (which would've been healthy probably had it been more muscle) to 168 in a two-year period. Simple lifestyle changes. And i agree that some people's bodies can be conditioned to take the pounding of running, but i have a feeling even most of them are going to be feeling it in old age.
Running is my go-to because you just step out the door and go, whether it's at home or traveling. And I am blessed with miles and miles of trails around my abodes (urban and rural/mtn). But as I age, I am trying to really sub in other stuff.
So, I've crept back into the low 90s--a lot of it is muscle, but i understand that it takes daily work and discipline to not become a fatass again.

Other than your current weekly mileage, what other information can you provide?
Do you do core strengthening work? Massages regularly (to bring attention to problem areas)? How is your form (not foot strike but where is your foot when it lands)? How long did you build your mileage to what it currently is? Did you follow the 10% rule? Do you change your chose regularly? Are all your runs the same pace pace/effort? Do you do track-work? Tempo runs? Long slow runs?
It sounds to many people (myself included) you are new to the sport and took on too much too fast, in which case rest and education might be your best course of action, but without other details it is really hard to say.
if you're going to be hard headed and remove rest as a possible solution, then just keep doing what you're doing until you hit a point than you can't run anymore, then see what "rest" is really like when you can't run for months.

Take time off of running and let that thing heal. Are you doing any weights? Maybe try subbing in strength training while you let your glute heal?
