I'll swap them for the bruised ribs I've been nursing for the past week. Very sore when coughing, laughing even pooing!!! Could be a good few weeks before I'm back running, never ever going to play 5-a-side again :(

Do you fancy a few weeks of NO RUNNING, MINIMAL CYCLING and SWIMMING (but only with a pull bouy)?Quote:

Trying to be stoic, but this is my longest break for 15 years.
Will the hills still be there if I recover???????????????
Sorry to hear about your hamstring, but these blisters really P1$$ed me off the other night. I was just getting going again and starting to nip round my steady runs in record times and then I go and wear a small pair of spikes. Blister both heals and all my toes. I have had to raid the babies nappy rash cream and she isn't even born.
RR - You probably already know this but Flexitol Heel Balm is a recommended product for prevention of foot blisters, especially when wearing in new running shoes. Now that you already have blisters I always found that the quickest cure was to dry them out by walking round with no shoes on and I would probably chuck your spikes (or risk getting more blisters). I'd still swap you for bruised ribs...another two weeks I reckon before I'm running again.
Just when I thought I was getting back into some decent form / level of fitness after being out for 4 months with an achilles problem I know have a hamstring strain / tightness. Felt it towards the end of the Gravy race & went out last night in the pouring rain but had to hobble home after 15 mins after pulling up sharply.
As Ady said "if its not one thing its a bloody nother." :(
I know the feeling Manhar!:( What I hoped was just post-race stiffness which I tried running off on Tuesday and then rested again until today has turned into a minor calf tear (turned round after only 7 minutes running tonight and jogged slowly home). experience tells me it will be 10 days to a fortnight before I should even consider running again.:(Quote:

I suffered for 8 months with the groin, I started wearing Skins and Nike pro and just carried on in a gentle way. Its not nice though and I wish you a speedy recovery.Quote:
