62 years old men here, DNF NYC marathon yesterday with hamstring injury!
For the last 10 years I have an injury that comes and go but I cannot get rid or it!
Usually, there is pain in deeper part of hamstring which increase with distance or intensity!
For exemple, i would start to have pain at 10 km in marathon, then builds up to hard pain like cramping after 30 km run then usually i limp until the end of marathon!
This often feels like a cramp getting worse
I had many treatments over the years but it always come back
I had mri done and they saw some old scars in the middle of my hamstring but no clues how to get rid of it
Yesterday was an other case since it was a sharp pain at the same place but so sharp that I has to stop at 10 km and go to the hotel !
Did you ever experience something like it and how did you fix it?
Funny part is that I dont have any problem biking!
Thanks for yiur help
