Injury woes

I was going so well on the road back from having Ruby just 9 months ago. I was just getting back up to some decent milage and banking 80-100 miles a week.

The Sliverstone half marathon was a great race for me, I felt strong in the gusty winds and I could feel the old running self back again. Winning is always nice, and a good confidence boost. However, this was short lived as I got a little excited at being able to run faster than 75mins for the half marathon again and got pumped for the session on the Tuesday, I over did it and tweaked my hamstring. I am so annoyed with myself for not listening more carefully to my body. I am currently cross training in an attempt to hold onto some of the fitness and hope my body can heal its self so I can at least do a little trot this weekend.
