I can't believe it. Half my first half marathon on Sunday (Windsor), and my left leg has given up on me. Think it's muscle strain, but it's too painful to run and even hurts when I walk. Did the hot-cold thing on it last night which appears to have helped a bit, but now my shin is killing me....why oh why...
Am seeing a phsyio tomorrow night and hopefully he'll be able to do something to ensure I can do the run on Sunday (tho' not sure how well I'll run as I haven't done any running (Except an aborted 20 minute painful run on Sunday) since last Thursday.
Feeling downright miserable now, any motivation will be more than welcome

Rest, get plenty of sleep and plenty of good food, keep doing the icing, have a splash in the pool if you really must do something, and catch up on that novel you've been meaning to read for ages.
You should feel much better on the day.
Best wishes, V-rap.

I've been cycling to keep fit, so fingers crossed! (However, it still is demoralising not being able to run - I'll never complain about going for a run again!)
I will try and rest before the day - and it's good to know that not running this week won't be too detrimental to my performance (I hope!). Fingers crossed - and I'll let you know what happens next Monday!
