Riiiiight....18 days ago? Shit it's been up and down.
Ended up pulling out on rugby training two Thursdays ago after about ten minutes, body just said no. So also decided to have the following Tuesday off, which was the right idea.
So back last Thursday and just as tough as previously, had to ditch a couple of the legs on conditioning. Bronco last night and came in at 5:33 probably at about 90% so bloody happy with that. Really good drills last night and starting to feel like I'm getting some mojo back.
Gym is open! Stoked to be getting in some decent tin throwing and the hard work during lockdown has left us a little bit stronger but wit a whole lot more endurance, it's great.

@MajorRage glute strain! Jesus! I don't think I could even imagine the effort required to produce an injury like that anymore. Sucks bro, sorry to hear.
Ahh well when you get better you can grab your boots and come join me in the FR down at 'nam.

@Bones you can do it too in 5 easy steps:
- Be older than 40
- Be overweight
- Run 1500k in 9 months culminating in a marathon
- Go mountain biking with your kids every second day for 4 months
- Ignore every warning sign that you are close to an injury

@taniwharugby nah just a light strain I think. Was feeling a bit tight and niggly at training and went to step to the outside and got the "ping".
Went to test this morning with a light jog before a 5km run and probably could have done it, but would have just made it worse. No restriction on walking or anything, so hopefully some drugs, deep heat and a bit of rest/walking might have it right for a Sunday run.
