Muscle spasm: It might due to muscle spasm from activities during exercise. Try to stretch more before exercising.

Posture???: Hard to say without an exam and possible x-ray of the area. Does this occur after any other activities. Does the discomfort go away after the trail running and how long after. May need to see a Dr.
