Ouch 2

I hobbled down to the race and made my way to the medical tent. A doctor had a look at my leg. The verdict? Pulled ham string with pretty severe inflammation. Treatment? Rest, time and ice. No deep tissue massaging. The big mystery is how it happened. It wasn't a sudden onset it just sorta got worse as the day went on.

I've had these sorts of injuries before (not in this spot mind you). The acute pain lasts for three days and then becomes manageable. In the mean time, I'm taking some Advil gel caps. Can't say they're doing much good though.

I think I'm going to cab/ferry back to Vancouver, rather then bus/ferry back.

Sorry to hear that, I know you were really looking forward to competing in this race. Hope the weather was nice anyway!
