http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/03/14/do-statins-make-it-tough-to-exercise/
Key quote:
"So what does the emerging science about statins and muscles mean for someone who is taking or considering the drugs? “Statins save lives,” Dr. Thompson says. “Most people cannot control their cholesterol with diet and exercise alone.” He advises athletes to stop taking the drugs several days before a competition or strenuous workout, to avoid exacerbating muscle damage.

Dr. Paul Thompson, the chief of cardiology at Hartford Hospital in Connecticut and senior author of the study that finds that statins damage muscle.
