Physio later...

~Physio update!~

Well I don't need to go back next week, apparently running is good for me since my muscles are nice and loose and stretched out! THe balance has improved a bit and I am going to carry on with the Butt Burners/Forward leaning thing/standing and punching whilst balancing on one foot exercises. I have some new exercises, one is doing bridges on thw Swiss ball and another one lying on the side and holding the leg 2 inches above the knee (same with angle/heel up towards ceiling). Also I have a good way to stretch the hip muscle out with the figure 4 stretch.

Thanks to FRB'ers Sam and Eric for telling me to go to the physio! It was a good idea to go to one that was recommended too. I can pop back in a couple of weeks if I find the exercises are getting easier, so I can get some more! Exercises are great! LOL

Seven 7 seven is the number well done, and enjoy the pain :-P

thanks for the info on the races. I look forward to a nice run in the good ole' U.K. (even if it is in the rain) From the look of your times and Dean-Howard's, I may need to hold on to the back of your shirts to drag me across the finish!
