Hi Sharks, I am looking forward for Opportunities in Servicenow. I have 3.7 years of exp and on hands exp in modules like ITBM, ITSM, flow designer and service catalog. Looking forward to hear from below companies EY Nagarro DXC Technology Accenture LTI Information Technology FIS Global Bosch Any reference will be welcomed. Thanks
You find time to run 6 miles a day? I don't find time to eat lunch
Happened to me actually. Two stretches you can do. Put two hands on the wall and extend one leg backwards to stretch calf. Then you can stand on a platform with heal hanging off and put downward pressure . Sorry for this horrible description but I hope it helps
I run about 50 mpw and am primarily a mile guy (29 and looked to get under 430 again). My hip flexors are crazy tight and mess up my back swing. PT has been stretching me and form has changed. Best advice is to slow it down and build back
Not a running expert, but I would expect something like that if you're moving from more of a heel first stride to a toe or middle of the foot first stride.
I usually do dynamic stretching (google it) after the first mile (warm up), and then continue. Also, there are a few wearables that help you monitor "form". The form usually constitutes cadence, ground contact time, vertical oscillation and hip drop (maybe some other like leaning forward). Some wearables help you monitor this stuff and slowly help you adjust with actual numbers, while still adjusting based on how you feel. Also, look into your shoes. Based on your weight and run style your shoes can have a life of 300 to 500 miles. So try updating based on where you are. And, if the style is completely different, consider taking a step back and go on runs based on time, start around 20 mins and build up to an hour over some months. It may be your body having trouble adjusting to the new form (using new muscles), and the best way is to ease into it. Good luck! I love running. Just completed my first Ironman last month. 👍🏻🏃🏻
Sorry for the lengthy message ☝🏼️ 😅
If you didn't have issues before then it might not have been a problem. In weightlifting we see this a ton where people attempt to force everyone into having the same body mechanics (except it doesn't work that way)... maybe get another opinion?
Stretch
Wear compression socks for one hour immediately post run. Helped my shin splints significantly.
Same hip flexor issue here - it causes me to walk a bit differently recurring post tibial tendinitis. Get fitted for running sneakers and keep up with stretching/PT. I also got back into running using intervals over 12 weeks. First week was 4.5 min walk 0.5 min sprint x 6. Increase the sprint by 0.5 min every week or when you're comfy (never more than a 10% increase in a day). Also, make sure your PT specializes in the biomechanics of running, I saw a few that never helped until I found the one I use now (I've kept him for years and reappear every so often to make sure I'm not falling into another functional issue since mine stems from hip rotation/hip flexor).
