I've been running/walking on my treadmill and being pretty dedicated on taking care of it, so hopefully soon it will go away.<BR/><BR/>:) Thanks friends!Christal Pellerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06895379616509018598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4822748690327358814.post-46891816147247406142009-01-08T08:28:00.000-08:002009-01-08T08:28:00.000-08:00It will likely take at least 2 or 3 weeks before i...It will likely take at least 2 or 3 weeks before it is back to normal, maybe as long as 6 weeks, depending on what you strained and how badly. In the meantime keep running easily as you are able. As Kathy always says, "Listen to your body."<BR/><BR/>I strained quads and something in the groin area of my right leg last fall, and I was able to keep running, but I cut my mileage in half and also reduced intensity. It took about 6 weeks before I was pain free. Also, I strained something behind my left knee just before Thanksgiving. Again I reduced my training, and now 6 weeks later I am pretty much back to normal.<BR/><BR/>Even though it sucks, be patient, and you will return to normal.Ethiopian Eliteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12597610504125824602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4822748690327358814.post-31934937078948200712009-01-08T05:35:00.000-08:002009-01-08T05:35:00.000-08:00The same thing happened to me about three-four wee...The same thing happened to me about three-four weeks ago after I got back from Sunmart. Plus my legs have been hurting more than usual. I finally decided to wear different shoes at our Tuesday run and that made a huge difference even though I am still sore. I have 500 miles on my shoes. I think it is time for me to visit Kathy for new shoes.Bobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10256446594427013914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4822748690327358814.post-71459022177107669232009-01-07T14:56:00.000-08:002009-01-07T14:56:00.000-08:00I could tell you weren't having fun on Sat, so kee...I could tell you weren't having fun on Sat, so keep RICE'g b/c I want want back the old Christal this Saturday!Cassy Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114267016954140830noreply@blogger.com
