| mikeminium | 5 days | details | |
| jsnyder | 5 days | Well I laid off running for a week and it feels fine now. Not sure if that means completely healed. Not gonna do fast stuff or leg lifting for a while though. | details |

| Anna | 5 days | details | |
| kettlebell03 | 5 days | This was just a slight pull from over use. I just took a few days off and it felt fine today. I think riding the bike helped a lot too. Great way to continue to exercise without putting undue stress on the leg. | details |

| CHARLIE-B | 5 days | I think too much sugar (Gu) caused the cramp. Hot whirlpool bath every morning with the jets on the affected area seemed to do a lot. | details |
| BruceMeier | 5 days | Warm beanbag and rolling 2-3 times a day. A few gentle runs. It now seems fine. | details |

| errolpit | 5 days | details | |
| Hobitas | 5 days | details | |
| Sergey | 6 days | At our age we should be more careful about running, running fast, and running viciously :) Seriosuly speaking, it was probably bad combination of luck, rocky surface, and jumping down with spiked shoes. | details |

| troll feet | 6 days | Ice and roller massage Thursday Friday and Saturday 22-24th. No run for a week as too sore. Ok on pre entered event on 25th. Aware of it but didn’t push the running 8.7k 82 mins | details |
| philm64 | 6 days | rehab - gentle jogs, hot tubs, self massage. clearly not a major "pull". Did right to address early with rest & rehab tho. | details |
| Mark3 | 6 days | Overtraining... Backed off a bit. | details |
| beeker | 7 days | Rest from running fast. Intervals, sprints etc are especially are the killer. Should have been a bit more careful with cycling as with clipped in shoes there is a bit more strain on it. | details |
| Bruce | 7 days | rest and bike riding. Gave the hamstring and core muscles time to settle down. | details |
| PatrickGarcia | 7 days | Time off. Seems like it might have been a super severe cramp as I had other cramping along with it for over a week post marathon. | details |
| MikeMc | 7 days | details | |

| Trav | 7 days | Pretty much gone. Stretching. No speed work. | details |

| tdgood | 7 days | Rest and lots of stretching to loosen it back up. | details |
| rexmundi | 7 days | details | |
| Tooms | 7 days | Probably stepped in a small hole and jarred my uncushioned lumbar vertebrae. 7 days till I woke up and able to sit up normally. Alternatively, 3 days of no running. | details |
| graeme | 7 days | Rest, stretching. | details |
| fpb | 7 days | I guess sprinting really is a whole different sport, one that I'm not necessarily in shape for. | details |
| CHARLIE-B | 7 days | details | |
| Davidm0811 | 7 days | details | |
| Bridge | 7 days | I think I'm recovered. Got better probably because I couldn't go hard-core since I was sick. | details |
| chelsealuttrall | 7 days | Seem to be fine now. I'll know for sure after intervals tomorrow. I need to stretch after warmup, prior to sprints. | details |

| Shingo | 7 days | details | |
| andrew_elwood | 7 days | Rest | details |
| kurthu | 7 days | details | |
| Steffen | 7 days | details | |
| Bruce | 7 days | Physio to release tightness and a 5 days rest from running before Oceania Champs. | details |
| Nadim | 7 days | Rest and much more stretching seemed to help. The rest included sleep. My weight seemed to gain when I lacked sleep. The added weight puts strain on my whole body. Some of this was likely linked to my back problems. | details |
| Reiver | 7 days | details | |
| Swisscheese | 8 days | details | |
| Ricka | 8 days | Swim, ex machines, biking all okay and either helped or let it heal. No running. Wicked bleeding/bruise on back of knee. | details |

| DrKeith | 8 days | Massage, stretchiun U/S | details |
| kensr | 8 days | Seems to be fading away by staying away from sprints. Will ease back into Repetitions at speed and do hamstring strengthening and stretching. | details |

| danielstroescu | 8 days | details | |
| nealont1 | 8 days | details | |
| mpeinado | 8 days | I think I was running too much and the long run made my hamstring really tired. Playing basketball and not warming up for the intervals is what caused the injury. I need to strengthen my hamstrings and warmup properly before a hard workout. | details |
| GrrrBear | 8 days | Just took it easy. | details |
| jessica.johnson | 8 days | Good weekend of rest and no stretching. Allowed muscle to heal itself. | details |
| coach | 8 days | details | |
| Louise | 8 days | details | |
| CHARLIE-B | 8 days | Decided to give it a really good rest. 10 days off all strenuous activity. Seems to have done the trick. | details |
| Reiver | 8 days | Rest, then gradual build up | details |
| riley mcfarlane | 8 days | It was just DOMS. I finally figured after exams I should start a thing called R E C O V E R Y R U N S. Now that I actually can be bothered to get up hopefully DOMS won't last as long until I'm in my late 30's. | details |
| codymonster | 8 days | More ball rolling, and some PT exercises to strengthen it and prevent recurrence. | details |
| tdgood | 8 days | Took the week off, no soccer, volleyball , or running. | details |
| morgrim | 8 days | Taking a rest day, stretching every night and using the massage gun worked | details |
| div | 9 days | details | |
| TheInvisibleLog | 9 days | Just slow and non intense gentle and short runs. Basically, taking it easy. | details |
| ebuckley | 9 days | I think I'm just going to have to put up with it. It doesn't seem to affect performance any - it just hurts a lot. | details |
| tdgood | 9 days | continue to run and orienteer | details |
| Kat | 9 days | details | |
| Cruachan | 9 days | details | |
| eoinmcc | 9 days | details | |
| artsosa | 9 days | I think being out of shape and biking kind of hard was too much for my Hammy during the run after the bike. Also Max probably had me running at a faster pace than I should have with my current fitness level. | details |
| Torio | 9 days | details | |
| errolpit | 9 days | details | |
| billh | 9 days | OK on easy run today, think it has resolved, will see how it does on Tue track workout, for now it is OK OK on 6x400m, true test will be the 200s next week, but I think I am good. | details |

| $mitty | 9 days | details | |
| wilsmith | 10 days | Not sure on the cause - maybe neglecting my strength training for a couple of weeks contributed to it???? No magic in the recovery - just rest and a (very little) vitamin I. | details |
| nmulder | 10 days | May have occurred during a MTB ride. Probably a result of hip imbalance again. Saw the chiro again, which appeared to help. Lack of gym work may have also contributed. | details |
| D.Keyser | 10 days | Biked every day for about 45 minutes. Iced every night. Stretched and Pilates to loosen muscle up before icing. Not running for a few days helped greatly. Slow jog on Thursday was good way to welcome the leg back to running. | details |
| Swisscheese | 10 days | When a muscle is not functioning properly and hurts clearly. Take a total rest, and start running until the physio says it is ok... in this case I actually thought it wasn't good yet... but the physio was right. | details |
| runonthefly | 10 days | Need more yoga; didn't do this a lot in the last month; should probably ease into something like this. | details |
| pwentz3l | 10 days | I believe this was an ice slip spaz dance related injury. 4 days rest and I am A-OK. | details |
| ks | 10 days | Even rustig aan doen en vervolgens op lagere intensiteit weer opstarten. | details |

| theshadow | 11 days | took a week completely off. worked out well as I had S on spring break so didn't have much time to train anyway In future, need to be careful to warmup properly and not slack on the yoga and stretching. | details |

| Ollie | 12 days | Rested for two weeks, with just a couple of runs - stiffened up after the first one, but felt better after the second one. Yet to run on it to prove it's healed, though. | details |
| balcius | 12 days | I guess I needed more time to recover after Igtisa race. Lots of work at the comapny and intense training. A strange thing but some special oil helped me out a lot. I will ask for more of it. | details |
| Skid185 | 12 days | just easy running and rest. Physio once but not really necessary. | details |
| motbakken | 12 days | Roet ned løpingen. Løp forsiktig i løpene, for ikke å provosere. | details |

| JesseHagberg | 12 days | Time. Seems to be ok now. Just logged it as a reminder to not do anything extreme with the hamstring | details |
| Nadim | 12 days | I kept from extending it but kept exercising to keep the blood flow going. I did stretch most days too; usually after exercising or in elevators. | details |

| errolpit | 12 days | details | |
| mjfirmin | 13 days | Caused by: Run, weights & soccer in one day then not resting the next Used RICE for couple days, then started light exercise with plenty of stretching. Maybe came back too soon because took quite a while to heal. | details |

| ks | 16 days | details | |
| LiveWideLoveDeep | 16 days | active recovery, (easy) stretching, ice, rolling (foam roller, trigger point stuff) and strengthening exercises. Stayed away from anything that would aggravate it (running, excessive stretching) and worked on lengthening and getting out knots and getting blood into it. | details |
| Reiver | 16 days | Tight knee probable cause. (still not cured) Stopping and jogging in was a good decision and helped quick recovery. Running easy rather than doing nothing also helped. | details |
| Trav | 16 days | Scaled the speed way back. Two highly invasive massage sessions with Phil | details |

| Akhilleus | 17 days | details | |
| gaffelman | 17 days | Hade läng kvar lite känningar pga att jag inte stretchat på rätt sätt. Fick sedan tips på en övning, och då släppte det omgående. | details |

| errolpit | 17 days | details | |
| Old Daniel | 17 days | Seems to have gone away....foot still not great and running action not balanced so hazard for repeat is probably still there when I do push the pace | details |
| Herbz | 17 days | details | |
| Nadim | 17 days | Rest and starting back slowly probably helped. This was my first injury in this area and not so deep as others I'd had. | details |

| Böbe | 18 days | details | |
| beeker | 19 days | Running unprepared is not so good. | details |
| Bruce | 19 days | A couple of weeks rest. Then slowly back into running. Pelvic and lower back stretches helped. Definately not my hamstring. Perhaps more hip and buttock related. | details |

| annawallin | 20 days | Sjukgymnasten trodde jag fått en överbelastning och inte en sträckning. Han kände o drog och sa att min rörlighet var mycket bra och att jag borde kunna springa igen. Testlöpte en timme, lugnt, och det kändes bra! Såklart lite ovant eftersom jag inte löpt på tre veckor och även lite småkänningar men det var inte farligt sa han :) | details |
| Cruachan | 20 days | details | |
| Brooner | 20 days | details | |
| DWildfogel | 20 days | Lots of rolling out with theraband plus one session at Kevin's (with Matt) certainly helped. Mostly just making sure I didn't run too hard once I started to recover. | details |

| Reiver | 21 days | Complete rest (no biking). See Border Physio. Suspect pelvis had moved and reset and ran with belt on. | details |
| Guisborough1 | 21 days | Cause was two speed sessions in a day. Then hammered it on Law race 8k. I should of just missed it. Lots of rest and then a little strengthening and foam roller. | details |

| haydensmith | 28 days | This seemed to creep up on me slowly, where I didn't notice until it got worse. Probably due to lack of rest, although I was diligent with stretching.

| MeanGene | 39 days | Last went to Rob Jones (ART) and get his treatment and exercises to stretch the side hip muscles. Those tight muscles forced the hamstring to overstretch and the cause for the strain. Within 4 days, he recommended I run. First Galloway 60/30 run/walk intervals, then on 10/5 - 100%.

| mikeminium | 50 days | After MRI etc, they're not really sure why it was so debilitating. I think the original injury was caused by pulling heavy picnic tables by myself for the New Year's Day event; I had some soreness the next day; got progressively worse until it gave out when I tried to race on the 9th. But whatever it was, it healed pretty quickly. Definitely need to do more regular stretching and strengthening exercises. | details |
| kurthu | 51 days | details | |
| Nadim | 51 days | It slowly got better. Though things felt like a pulled hamstring, the medical diagnosis was Lumbar Radiculopathy. Making this resolution entry after the fact, I guess my body re-routed the nerves after my disc herniation and a piece breaking off between L4/L5, then getting lodged in my spinal column squeezing the spinal cord. | details |

| Charlie | 57 days | I'll mark this down as recovered, although it is still not 100%.

| dancarter | 59 days | I think it was caused by running too hard, too soon in colder weather. I took a month off completely from running with short hikes, walking and biking. Slowly started running short distances and stopping if the pain came back. Good warm ups are key. | details |
| MeanGene | 59 days | Dr. Rob Jones says older runners end up with weak glutes because running involved only forward motion and not using muscles if you went side to side like other sports. That put all the workload on the hamstrings. Strengthen the glutes and future running would be back to using all the muscles. | details |
| HitnHope | 60 days | After the marathon, probably the least painful part of my legs. Wondering if it was in my head to stop me overtraining. | details |

| crusher | 75 days | Don't know exactly when this went away. I forget to log in the injury section, which is a good thing. "Treatment" for my twitchy hammy consisted mostly of being careful about warming up before quick efforts, and also some foam-rolling and massage. | details |

| Bruce | 76 days | I got the results of my MRI last night. It says that I do have oestitis pubis, and a small 8mm tear in the left adductor tendon that joins onto the pubic bone. Given that I have been in no pain for almost 3 weeks now, the doctor is not going to intervene. However, if I have another set back then he would like to treat me to improve my recovery. Hopefully I am already on the road to recovery and the worst is over, but if there are any setbacks, at least I know what is wrong and can... | details |

| HitnHope | 114 days | Finally, nearly a year after the injury. Taking two weeks out made a huge difference. The fact that I was skiing seems to have been beneficial in that the other muscles in my legs were getting a balanced workout. Am now stretching the hams after every run.

| Doris | 296 days | I'm going to mark this as resolved even though I can still feel gentle tugs when I tire. No lessons - just feel old and I think it will never be the same again. | details |

| ChristianeT | 323 days | Think I found the place where the problem arises and massaging this point helps, but I still don't know why I got this problem :\ | details |

| gas_turbine | 361 days | Proper PT (went to a very good one after 1/2 year of little progress). For a very very long time. Don't push injuries when they start sneaking their way in - I just ignored it, and then it got me the day after speedwork. | details |

| fletch | 422 days | Took till I restarted training again in October 2023 to be genuinely free of discomfort when running. | details |
| 1L | 483 days | Calling it healed. Stil lots of work to do generally but HS is pretty much fully useable now. Need to work up mileage. Becareful about overtraining. If something is injured give it time for recovering - don't keep trying to train with the injury. | details |

| cfosp1 | 732 days | This ebbed off with PT exercises. Re-injured last fall when I hit my foot on a root and had this shooting pain all the way up to the tendon. Not as bad as the initial injury and it got gradually better. Don't notice it any longer. | details |
| Yvonne | 1140 days | Right now, I'm putting this one to rest. I don't believe I am completely recovered -- because I do think this is a chronic condition. But the good news is that I think it is manageable through consistent strength/stretch work and careful training practices. | details |
