I spent the week going back and forth to the chiropractor's to try and get over my injury in time for the race. I had numerous adjustments and spent quite a while with the electro therapy. My leg was actually feeling pretty good. I was hopeful.
Today I went out for a trial run. I figured I'd do a mile and see how I felt. As soon as I started running the pain started. My gait was some sort of weird hobble thing. I did manage to do the mile but it was a walk/hobble as opposed to a run.
So now it is time to rehabilitate and regroup. I wonder whether I'm just not cut out for the distance and should aim for shorter. Or whether I do have another half in me somewhere. I guess time will tell.
One thing is for certain, I won't be giving up running.
