Physio's diagnosis - A tight, stressed and tender VMO!
He gave it a good thrashing on the table and then some acupunture to try and speed things up a little bit (never had that before and it was wierd). Now it's just a matter of trying to get it as loose/relaxed as possible before the race. All in all it was a positive outcome as it could have been much worse.
I will go for a light jog tomorrow (maybe 3k) and see how it goes. I will likely start the 100 miler and see what happens - I am still less than certain I'll finish the race and I'll have to through all time goals out the window.
Frustration continues to mount after a horrible 8 months (running wise that is)- I just want this year to be over!
I am a 27yr old ultra runner from Rockingham WA, married to Kate and we have a son called Noah. I run because I have a passion for it and I find freedom in pushing the limits of my ability.
