Okay, I’m pushing it on the young part, but I am getting rather restless not running. It’s been over two weeks since my last run and there is no detectable pain in my left leg, no matter how I poke and prod it. The worst I can manage is a bit of a tweak when I lift the lower leg up at a 90 degree angle, holding it horizontal. It still doesn’t hurt, it just doesn’t feel the same as my right leg. But that is enough to make me hesitate. Still, I think about going down to the park for a test to see how it feels. If I just run a short distance I should be able to tell if it’s still in recovery mode without exacerbating the injury.
Or I could just bide my time for another two weeks and not risk it.
It should be an easy decision but it’s really not.
Stupid leg.
