Subject: Injury and HIM in 10 weeks?
Been having some issues with my right leg and knee. Seen physio today and he had said no training for next few weeks. I have a HIM in 10 weeks...with no training for 2-4 weeks i will only have maybe 5 weeks to prepare.

Though i have a bit of a base,is 5 weeks cutting it too fine?

Depends if this is your first him and what your base is and what exactly is the injury (high chance of flare up?). I'm on my phone typing so I can't look at your logs. My first was last year and if it happened to me I may have gotten across the finish line but it would.not have been pretty. This year I would be ok.

With that said you may need to change your expectations regarding results.

But if you have done a multitude of these races and have a great base you may be ok.....so you see it just depends.

Good luck
