Mixing in some RDLs and squats with my long lever bridges is definitely helping. I'm planning to run stadium stairs next week.
What looked like a potentially competitive field at Nationals evaporated. Winning time was only 62.76. I ran 60.32 in trainers 5+ weeks ago. I could have won nationals completely untrained, in hiking boots, running backwards. Oh well.
Little did I think that my first 400m race in 58.75 back on 12/12 would hold up as #2 in the world, only .06 behind #1.
What this injury has taught me is that sprinting at age 60 is a rare and true privilege, and that I must do this rehab right and give myself plenty of time, listen to my body and maintain a fitness regime so that when I do start to run, I will be able to not have to play months of catchup.
