Upper Leg, Hamstring Pain

2009-09-22 – 2009-11-02

Grade: 2

Moderate himstring pull. I am hobbled a bit. Sucks. I guess I was pretty wore down from the 30 hours of Trioba and the hamstring pulled during moderate exertion. I was taking it easy - filing in for goal. How lame is that!

Went to PT 4 times following the first 9 days of the injury. Should have gone to PT sooner. Active recovery is the new name of the game on hamstring pulls. PT was the best and helped me recover. I was running moderately within 4-5 weeks of the injury and full speed ahead within 9-10 weeks of injury. Super Happy!
