Day 3 and I have improved. I jogged VERY gingerly for about 20 yards in the parking lot this morning. It was painful and done with a significant limp but just 2 days earlier, I could not even do that. No, I didn't strain it further and I know better than to push my luck.
I should be able to enjoy the ocean as per usual but I actually hope that waves are in the 2-3 foot range rather than 4-6. 5 days out from race day and I'm afraid it's a no go. I've thought about walking it but I'll probably just skip it. Knowing me, I am liable to push it beyond my limits and make it worse.
I predicted anywhere from 2 weeks of rest to up to 8. Most likely, it will be in the 3-4 week range. I will not run until I am 100 percent pain free.
As for the pills, I am off the ADHS. The only thing I take besides the methylation support is Vitamin C. It does give me a bit of a temporary boost but it's short lived. When I get back, I'll try an anti-parasite supplement but I have little confidence that it will work.
