2.5 km run tonite.....
ok , I'm not going to panic, its just a set back.
Luckily my sister is in town who is a massage therapist and a Yoga instructor. She was good enough to work my left hamstring and legs.
Her description:
your hamstring muscles are like guitar strings and she said right now they are twisted up like a licorice stick. So she spent time working out the twists - yes...it was uncomfortable!
She said, flush out the area twice a day - I looked at her with a puzzled face??.. apparently , if you sit on a cold pack then alternate with a warm pack this moves the blood and helps speed up the repair of torn muscle tissue.
Then she gave me some yoga moves to hold a good stretch in and was adamant about using the foam roller every day to keep all muscles supple.
She ended with "you know...you are getting older, is all this really necessary at your age?"
...silly sister...

As I see it, age has squat to do with anything. It's how we treat ourselves in the process.
Yup, silly sister...
