Up The Junction
A couple of weeks after Canberra Marathon last year I was hit with a bit of a hamstring problem. Funny (well, not really) a couple of weeks after this years Canberra its happened again, different leg though.
Last year I was able to run through it to a degree and so have been doing the same this time. Then on Monday I thought I'd take the smart option - have a few days off running and do some strengthening exercises etc. Went to PCRG this morn to give it a test drive and it hurt a little during the warmup, so rather than run fast for the 1k reps I just sat on a 'steady' pace. By the end of the second one I was almost limping and had to pull the pin.
Not the best considering its Warwick this weekend.
And I have a cold.
And we lost the State of Origin.
And my blog isn't imbedding what I want it to imbed.
And and and ...

No good. Hope the hammy heals itself quick. What, No SMH Half report? What's going on?
My hammies were very tight too after Canberra, must be all that bitumen :P
I hear you Tess, re the cold too.
Get well soon.
Oh and go the Blues. :)
Tesso's Sad Training Tales. Chin up Tesso. Soldier on. Tally Ho!
There, does that help?

Spelling error sorry!
I am sorry to hear about all those things you mentioned, besides the State of Origin, Go the Blues ;-)
Seriously I really hope it was nothing to be concerned about. It would be a shame to not have you running at your best again for the second year in a row.

Have fun at Warwick!
Bugger. At least it's imbedded in a different leg. You might have to jog Warwick with Shane.
Don't worry mate - the Cane Toads have come back from 1-nil down before (but they won't this time!).
Sorry to hear of your woes Tess. Fingers crossed for a speedy return from pesky hammy troubles. Man, I miss Warwick. I can't wait to get back there again !
And so its my assumption
that with a proper rest and exercises you will be back.
Just like Qld.
Your cold should be gone by the weekend. Have a good Warwick.
What are you trying to embed?
Cheer up. Computers will be computers, footy teams don't matter and your leg will get better! See, nothing to worry about :-)

Tesso does it again!
I'll be dragging out a Squeeze CD tonight. I may possibly even try to murder the song on guitar.
Cheers,

I hope the hamstring is behaving and you made it to Warwick!
All the best with getting the hammy right, and everything else...know the feeling when nothing seems to be working.
I saw a bit of the state of origin on TV but I live in AFL land, and my team Fremantle has lost about 8 out of 9 games this year, so know the feeling this year. Just keep doing the things that need to be done and eventually things will pick up, maybe one of those really smart geeks can help with the blog...
Hope you make it to Warwick.
Enjoy the journey as best you can!
but you have spirit!
change in gubbermint, change in hammy.
natch.
Things certainly look grim Tesso.
Your run of outs may not be over just yet and that light at the end of the tunnel could be a high speed train coming your way.
So take care an know that things will get better in their own time. Queensland will win again, don't know where don't know when but you know they'll win again some sunny day ;)
sorry to hear about warwick but also very proud!
and i accept that challenge of yours for a 2 metre race.
i'm pretty slick off the blocks!
Dammit - hammies are such a pain! Do hope it comes right after a little rest and you can continue to train for the GC - looking forward to seeing you there. Take care and get well sooooooon!
