Contractions?

So i just left the gym and walked the treadmill with a good incline/speed. I definitely felt what i think were early labor contractions going off what people/l&d teacher describe. They were pretty consistent, close and always around a minute long. Shortly after i stopped, they stopped though. I did actual work outs through my whole pregnancy, so i know it's not that.  Does this happen to anyone else? I am 39 weeks.

I went and walked at the beach for an hour after that and it started again but stopped again and now my groin and lower back hurt a whole lot. Ive been drinking a lot of water though especially when walking, so i shouldnt be dehydrated.
