Lee, keeping figures, hope some easy running is all that it will needed.
Yes entry accepted so I guess I will have to leave the hill training in March and do some road running!
No ill effects from yesterday, which may go down as one of the worst birthdays on record, injured and with a cold, left home before the family woke up, evening conference call from 5:30 to 10:30, overflowing header tank, wife fell out of the loft trying to fix it breaking my sons bed. Still next year I'm 40 so it could be worse!
Steve what do you think I should do today, still stiffness in the hip area but no pain, it is marginally better than yesterday. I see the Physio at 5:30 today but would prefer to run (if you advise) before hand.
Oh no - hope you have a better day today to make up for it! Happy 2nd birthday to go with your 2nd breakfasts
Since you are now 39 you are already embarking on your 40th year - I've heard it's a very, very good one - hope so! And anyway - 40 is the new 30!
Hope the physio gets you sorted tonight and that your wife didn't hurt herself too much!
First the bad, no Wokingham this weekend as it would be too soon with the possibility of tearing the muscle
Now the good, it is only a strain so I can still run so long as I am not pushing, so I will learn running easy. Also so long as I follow the advice, which I will, I should be back up to full speed in 10 days.
A progression 6 tomorrow to find the easy pace
How is your wife? And your son's bed? Did you at least get any running gear as a birthday present?
Mini-Hurray (I think!)
Now don't make me get my waggy finger back out
Sppedy & Fraser, it is because I don't always listen intently and after a quick call it is the psoas muscle. The Physio is very tried and tested, worked with the Aussie cyclists at the Sydney games and had this injury himself. Appartently very common in ice hockey goalminders!
Wife is fine, well apart from being a bit grumpy!
Son's bed needs a new frame section, which I will have to fashion this weekend instead of Wokingham!
No presents at all (well aprt from the trip to centre parcs) the good thing the competition winners have a fairy godmother at the moment in Stacey from ASICS, so I have all the kit I could wish for and really good kit at that!
I MISS RACING!!!
Hi Lee. Just popped in to wish you all the best for Wokingham to discover that like me you are having to stay away
Glad that you are allowed to do some easy running though
Hi USB - hope all well.
I've had a problem there too and the psoas must be pronounced like Soleus because I too thought they said something like 'solus' to me.
No consolation but Pete, last year's Asics fast runner is sort of your substitute at Wokingham and will be looking for a similar time as you were hoping for!
Steve, your right no consolation but will look out for his result.
I may have to run a park run when this is healed just to fix my craving for racing, there is a new one about 5 miles from my house so I can run there and back
It was an easy run of just a couple of miles in the end, cold but enough warmth thanks to the winter sun. I intend a longer run today just because it feels right. The hip is so close to being ready perfect when I got up and after stretches, slightly stiff after 1hr 30 in traffic.
Pete had a cracker at Wokingham looks like he is going from strength to strength. I feel fresh now and think I could of run somewhere around 1:15:30.
Steve when can you post the next traunch of the training plan to give me something to look forward to?
