Treadmill Run Walk Recovery

[GettingFitter]

Managed 37mins 4.75K of run walk to try to make my calf recover. It's taking too long to recover and I want it fixed yesterday. Let's see how it is tomorrow.

Oh dear GF, that doesn't sound too good. Did the treadmill session make you feel any better?

[GettingFitter Graduate in reply to misswobble]

It did thanks MW just for having run a bit

[poppypug Graduate]

Oh G, these injuries are the flippin' pits arent they ?

Hope its better for you tomorrow, I wish you well and a speedy recovery xxx

[GettingFitter Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Thanks PP. How are you getting on with yours?

[poppypug Graduate in reply to GettingFitter]

Still crocked but thank you for asking xxx

Ive been trawling on the internet trying to find out what it could be and driving myself completely nuts

Ive rested it and it hasnt made a scrap of difference, off to Physio next Monday xxx

[GettingFitter Graduate in reply to poppypug]

That's not good PP. Hope you get an answer from the Physio

[poppypug Graduate in reply to GettingFitter]

Thanks G, me too . Im panicking about my 10k in May. My training plan is in tatters xxx

Aaaww poppy sorry to see your still sitting on the bench

So frustrating for you. Take care and hope physio gives some better news xxxx

Hope it's ok tomorrow GF. Must be awful when you want to get going again. Be worth taking your time though. Don't rush it. You'll be back to full fitness just in time for the spring hopefully.

Thanks Lou I don't do patience that well

Hope it has helped GF, these calves are a trial aren't they .My rungroup leader (who owns our local running shop too) suggested for mine to massage out the knot (which I think is my problem) as much as was bearable, it Really was sore but the next day it was miles better. Still stiff after running but a definite improvement, might be worth a try on yours?

[GettingFitter Graduate in reply to aliboo70]

Thanks Ali, I'll give it a go

Thanks Rob - it really is so frustrating but it's great to see lots of people progressing too.

That Injury couch is a popular place at the moment, been there since Christmas and like you want it fixed yesterday. Hope you get off it soon but don't rush it and made things worse.

[GettingFitter Graduate in reply to Jo55]

Thanks Jo - probably a time of year thing. Hope you get off it soon too

[Jo55 Graduate in reply to GettingFitter]

Thanks. Think you are right bout the time of year, I'm sure the cold doesn't help.

[Hidden in reply to Jo55]

Hope you are recovered soon jo

Major Bummer GF. HAve you inroduced your calf to Fanny Foam Roller? She can be a bit of a beeatch, but she did wonders for my calf a while back.....

[GettingFitter Graduate in reply to danzargo]

Yes thanks Dan. Foam roller is looking flatter these days
