Thank you! Good luck!
Thanks. I wouldn’t want to, even if I could. I fundraised for a very special organization that benefits kids like mine with critical and terminal illnesses and my bib was going to have a pic of my kid on it. 😢 Big bummer.
Torn Hamstring - Lemmy.World

I’m scheduled for a half marathon in 5 weeks. I KNEW I probably should not have deadlifted before my sprint workout. I didn’t wake up this morning to run like I should have, so I lifted weights before my running workout. During my sprints, I felt and heard a pop. I immediately felt pain and hobbles to a stop. Fortunately I was in front of my house. I couldn’t bend over to untie my shoes and get them off. Luckily my wife was home. I know this isn’t a medical forum and I’m not seeking medical advice, I’m already in contact with my doctor, but I’d like some opinions and feedback (or questions) from others that have experienced the same. Chances of running in 5 weeks? 😢😢 If it was completely torn, I was feel and see a ball of muscle rolled up right?

Thank you!
Interesting. I thought static stretching was bad for explosive movements but good for endurance beforehand. Maybe I’m wrong. I don’t do much warm-up anymore, neither for running out weightlifting. For weights, I will do that movement without weights for two sets.
Interesting. Thanks for the feedback.
Unbelievable. Congratulations!
Interesting. What are you using? Or, are referring to a Garmin watch, etc?
Interesting idea. I’m not sure that would work. I sweat so much I can’t imagine anything sticking. I have pretty sensitive skin, too. I had to wear a 24-hour holter monitor and I literally still have a spot on my skin where the patch was in the shape of a square from months ago!
I’m using a Garmin Fenix 7, plus the chest HRM strap. I feel like wrist only wouldn’t be as accurate. With that said, might not be a bad idea so scrap the chest one since I’m trying NOT to focus on HR so much and go more by effort. Not sure yet.
