Back in Business (almost)

After over two weeks of no running and several physio visits I got the go-ahead to hit the road again last Wednesday, just 30mins or so every second day, which didn't feel too bad. It was only slow, but the hammy was still tight enough to make me want to run conservatively anyway.

On Monday Adam (physio) said it would be okay to increase the distance and to run on consecutive days. He's been doing lots of work on my back and glutes, seems that's where the problem lies. Monday arvo following my visit was probably the most free I've felt running in a while, including the couple of weeks before the hammy tore. Yesterday's massage seemed to improve things even more, I've got another one booked for next week.

The Gold Coast marathon is still a possibility. I go to physio again on Friday and hope to get the all clear to do maybe 2 hours or so on the weekend. Go the reverse taper!



I wasn't the only one happy to be back at PCRG :) How's the fog!!!



Even Pat was pleased to see us!
