Lingering gluteus medius injury and HIM

I did a half mary about a month ago and acquired a glut medius strain. Didn't feel it at the time, but after the fact it was fairly sore just walking with a sharp pain. My first run after the half was accompanied by this sharp pain, so I took a few days off, stretched and tried again on a shorter run. Long story short, its still present. I've started strengthening (leg abductions, etc--it was quite weak--I could hardly get through 20 abductions at first) and stretching. I don't seem to have pain with short 4-5km runs and the pain now is more of a dull ache on/after longer runs. I'm really wondering how I should proceed at this point with a HIM on Aug 1. (Yes, I do know I probably should have taken time off in May--but I had an Oly and its too late to go back now--I also figured it would be self-limiting and just go away) So now I'm debating from just cutting running out for the next 2 weeks (sprint June 20) and putting all my time into swim/bike and strengthening or just doing around 4 short 4-5km runs a week and adding more swim/bike after that? So basically cut out running or not? Its quite frustrating and with a HIM looming in the not so distant future I am a bit perplexed about what to do. Thoughts?
