I’m scheduled for a half marathon in 5 weeks. I KNEW I probably should not have deadlifted before my sprint workout. I didn’t wake up this morning to run like I should have, so I lifted weights before my running workout. During my sprints, I felt and heard a pop. I immediately felt pain and hobbles to a stop. Fortunately I was in front of my house. I couldn’t bend over to untie my shoes and get them off. Luckily my wife was home.
I know this isn’t a medical forum and I’m not seeking medical advice, I’m already in contact with my doctor, but I’d like some opinions and feedback (or questions) from others that have experienced the same. Chances of running in 5 weeks? 😢😢 If it was completely torn, I was feel and see a ball of muscle rolled up right?
Thanks. I wouldn’t want to, even if I could. I fundraised for a very special organization that benefits kids like mine with critical and terminal illnesses and my bib was going to have a pic of my kid on it. 😢 Big bummer.
