any heel strikers in here?

recently experiencing some lower back / hip pains on my left side. I havent ran since Sunday, when the pain got increasingly worse during a run. The weight gain from Nov to Jan (10lbs) plus me going way too hard when i first started mid jan may have accounted to this. i've been icing for the past three days and taking over-the-counter pain killers (500mg) but the pain doesn't seem to subside. If this continues by Monday, I'm more than likely seeking treatment but just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and what did you end up doing to remedy it.

Today just hit the 330 mark for the year on the nike app

In the Minneapolis climate even

I have had knee and lower back pain and I went to a physical therapist. He told me that I had weak hips. They gave me a plethora of hip strengthening exercises. Look em up on YouTube.

If I'm strictly running I refrain from taking preworkout. I do take BCAAs before my runs

Hey, man, could you kindly school me on BCAAs? I've been thinking of taking 'em as opposed to whey protein since I'm in no way of building a lot of muscle. I lift for strength/gains and run, and I was wondering if BCAAs could be some sort of alternative to whey. I've watched videos regarding BCAAs but I'm not too convinced just yet and I'd like to know from someone who takes it regularly, like yourself, about its pros and cons. Thanks in advance!

BCAA are instantly absorbed so it's usually best before cardio so you won't lose muscle mass

use the whey as a post workout for the days you don't run

Wonderful advice, man. Thanks!

Helps maintain muscle mass and develop lean muscle mass, helps your body process protein, and muscle recovery

I supplement it with whey after my workouts.

Hope that helps

I ran for the first time in a month. I'm in Maryland. It was 34 degrees. I ran four miles in the Epic React. Not a bad shoe but not exactly a runner (I normally use the Brooks Beast or Clifton 3...and have a Vapor Fly 4%).

I was slow. But I'm going to try to get back in the rhythm of running two times a week. I have a half in May.

Definitely. I went TTS. If I like how they feel and look IRL, I'll probably get a 2x to run in and the Black cw too!

 

[maverickdrinker]

Volt is the max lol

They look TOO GOOD to run in... :/

Would buy this in a heartbeat if they were released....

You guys have any interesting run events coming up? I'm flying to Hong Kong this weekend for their Victoria 162 event. The have 3 different races on 3 consecutive days:

Day 1: 40km (12hr limit), 3,848m elevation
Day 2: 80km (25hr limit), 1,636m elevation
Day 3: 42km (15hr limit), 2,374m elevation

You can sign up for all 3 if you're crazy. I'm just doing to the 42km one. I have no idea what to expect, I heard there's a lot of stairs, which I hate.

We using anything other then Nike’s to run? Just got a couple pairs of Brooks. Tried it out yesterday and they were good. Felt really cushioned.

 

[rfx45]

many here love Hoka

 

[jhowlett]

I have a pair of brooks levitate

 

[jhowlett]

So i think my plantar fasciitis is returning, but only feel it on runs. Is there anything you guys recommend. I’m rolling my calf’s and feet out every day and stretches. Anything I’m missing besides ice? Would really like to keep running but might take a couple of weeks off.

 

[illustrayt]

Casual 6miler in these. I’m impressed.
