R Lower Leg, Calf Strain
2008-02-19 – 2008-04-01
Grade: 3
Been affecting me for about a year now. Comes and goes and screws up my training. Did it again at a 1500m race. Gonna take some time off now and get it fixed for good even if it means missing this track season altogether.
Was a previous injury which came back when racing a 1500m, due to not being properly warmed up and stretched i think, and racing hard straight up and not leading into it enough. Physio to help recover and MBA stretches work wonders, bit of icing and anti-flaming in there too, also just general rest and being cautious running on it and not going too hard just because it feels good.
