I haven't been able to run since the race on Saturday because of back pain.
I had a bit of a cold, and on Monday am I was coughing and suddenly felt pretty significant low back pain. A pulled muscle.
It remains pretty bothersome 2.5 days later. Quite stiff, especially if I don't take ibuprofen.
I'm guessing I may be out of commission for another week.

Maybe the bike ride in the rain had a bit to do with it, too. Believe me, a day doesn't go by without a new ache or pain. Getting old is a serious challenge:). I hope you feel better soon. When you can, I recommend some barefoot running on grass. Try it!
ReplyDeleteWhile you're right about the getting older part, it seemed to be the cough that did it (I'm sure that wouldn't have happened when I was 25!). I did just go out for a short jog, and the back felt OK, so that's encouraging.
