I'm so close to being healthy, if I wasn't competing this weekend I probably wouldn't even mention my hamstring but unfortunately I am competing--and I'm not sure if I'm quite there yet. It's going to come down to the wire, I probably won't know if I can jump until Friday morning. When I did runways today I felt good for the first 14 strides but the last three didn't feel nearly as smooth as I would have hoped. I felt like instead of going into top gear I slowed down to relieve the tension. At this point it could go either way.
On a brighter note hang-cleans felt good today, it was the first time I went "heavy" with them in a couple weeks. I went up to 205lb's and didn't feel overly challenged. I searched the gym for a set of 2.5lb's to put on the end for the last set but I could only find one. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise.
My heel didn't seem to hurt today but in all fairness I didn't really jump on it beyond a few pop-up's.
I have visions of tearing my hamstring in half on my first long jump but that's a...that's a worst case scenario.
