I have had this persistent cough for like two weeks. Last Wednesday I was playing soccer and I decided to just start playing, no stretching or warming up. Towards the end I ended up straining my hamstring. I didn't run or anything in the last week. Today arrives and I decide that I am well enough that I can try and pick up running so I can get moving on my marathon training. The first 2 miles are fine when out of nowhere I feel my hamstring twitch again. I walk for a few minutes before trying it again. It doesn't strain again, but I can tell that is is really tender. I walk home. I have never had to bail out on a run like that. I still have 16 weeks until marathon day, but I'm getting anxious to start putting on the miles. More than anything, I just want to be able to run just for the sake of being able to run. Instead I'm left feeling like this picture....well not quite, but I'm still disappointed.
