Posted by simon on 7/2/2008 Going into the British Masters championship I'd tweaked my hamstring. This developed into a full-blown left buttock muscular arrest. After the race I was walking with a limp for two days. Given I was doomed to sitting in an aircraft seat for 8 hours, I consulted my Inner Coach and was given the week off. Not running for eight days was, surprisingly, not at all difficult. But it didn't seem to do much good. My first day back on the legs was Tuesday at the track, where a series of gentle 100s and 50s just to see what was working revealed that the left leg still doesn't want to play. | |
