So, a chiropractor diagnosed my back/leg pain as a herniated disc, which was unfortunately after I had signed up for the tough mudder in May... I just started my first day of training, and found that I was dragging my leg after half a mile. I still can't stand on my right toes after about 4 weeks since the pain first showed up... Although it hasn't been as painful in recent times, especially after snowboarding, which seemed to loosen me up and take away a lot of pain, after this mile run my back is feeling pretty painful...
My question to all of you people out there who've had this, do you think I'll be ready for the tough mudder in may? it's a 12 mile course. I'm gunna keep running and pushing it and building up mileage, but my concern after tonight is that I might just undo all of the progress I made over the last few weeks.
