Injury setback......

I've been really trying to push up my weekly mileage since early Sept in order to get on schedule.

I managed to get to 51km for the week 1 and 55km for week 2 of my 14 week marathon program.

However, I managed to ignore the tingling in my hamstring and inner thigh.

Week 3 started off a bit rough, after that things started to go downhill. The pain in the hamstring and inner thigh got to the point where I was practically limping when I started my run on Friday.

After the first km, I wised up and did an about turn.

For the last 4 days, I tried to cycle and swim and limit my runs to very short distances.

The situation has improved some what, but I will need to monitor the pain levels closely as further deterioration may setback the whole schedule by a month and not 2 weeks.

Oh well....
