ok - good news and bad news here.
I think skipping my 30mins easy run may have been a bad idea earlier in the week.
After my 70mins yesterday running at quite a slow pace ahr 135 i kinda had a bit of an ache in my right hamstring.
I performed my usual cooldown and strecthing exercises as always.
So off i went home from the gym thinking that a goods night sleep and all would be well.
Woke this morning and could still feel it :mad: rested up again all day and in denial a little went to the gym for Day 02 easy 30min.
Warmed up/stretched a bit more than usual and started off at quite a slow pace similar to the long run pace. I don't think my body likes this slower pace and it didn't feel natural so i increased the pace after the first 1k and the pain went away in my leg
. I continually increased the pace and felt comfortable for the entire run.30mins 5.97k ahr 139 mhr 158
1k 5.54min ahr 115 mhr 126
2k 5.00min ahr 135 mhr 140
3k 4.59min ahr 140 mhr 145
4k 4.48min ahr 144 mhr 149
5k 4.47min ahr 151 mhr 154
5.97k 4.31min ahr 155 mhr 158
After cooldown and stretching pain is still there but i feel like it will shift with a goods night sleep.
So i'm not making excuses here but shall i swap the schedule around a bit and avoid the 2000's tomorrow?
I can walk about fine etc but keen to not aggravate things?
Over to you coach
help :duh:

Heck this snow lark is really having its affects or its just simply old age getting in early
please read this section to see if you can pinpoint anything
http://www.time-to-run.com/injuries/hamstring/index.htm - Hamstring injuries
however I do believe it may have resulted from running on the treadmill, some runners can and some don't go too well
and yes, skip tomorrow's session and we see if we can slot it in Friday or Saturday
please keep me informed

I feel better but not 100% this morning. I'm sure i'll be good to go for the 2000's tomorrow. So today i'll just rest up.
I did read through the various sections and will keep to RICE for now.
I may need a new pair of trainers soon as i have done quite alot of mileage on these ones. Do u need to replace trainers as frequently if most of your mileage is on a treadmill? Less impact shoes may last longer? :-)
Btw all my running recently has been on a treadmill but u r right about my age i guess!
sub 40 10 k. Please advise - TheEd - 05-02-2009
Its a good idea to have two pairs of reliable trainers so you can alternate the shoes allowing the shoes to recover from day to day
Hope that helps
TheEd
ps.. till the morrow and I hope everything is better, maybe better for session on Saturday even

First off, how are your legs, please?
and then
what a solid and superb session in comparison to the last attempt
this surely must give significant confidence?
excellent
