Hello! I'm getting hamstring pain in my left leg when I run. I don't get this on the bike. I have found a tight compression sleeve around the left thigh helps alot and stretching to a lesser degree...but the problem is not going away unless I cease running. Only running once or twice a week and obviously tempo/interval work makes it flare up more than easy runs. Feels like there is a weakness there. I'm right-handed and very much right hand side dominant in my body.
I had thought maybe I need to strengthen the hamstring (but still stretch it so it doesn't shorten it over time)...but am clutching at straws.
Any ideas? Many thanks for your time/consideration.....cheers,
Paul.

Is it something to do with weak glutes and the hamstring trying to compensate? Or even a nerve like conditions? To me, it feels like the hamstring is weak.
