L Upper Leg, Hamstring Pain
2019-12-07 – 2020-03-30
Grade: 2
Hamstring never quite healed after April, and is still causing trouble. Can't reach top speed. Doing 3 sessions per week in the gym and cutting out long distance for January. 2 weeks skiing in March seem to have toned both legs about the same. Less pain at the start.
Finally, nearly a year after the injury. Taking two weeks out made a huge difference. The fact that I was skiing seems to have been beneficial in that the other muscles in my legs were getting a balanced workout. Am now stretching the hams after every run. Cycling is good if it starts to ache from too much running.
