My wife, son & I were at the track a few days ago. I haven't sprinted full speed in awhile. I was there for a minute but got out of it. I usually just walk fast pace or slow jog. Reason being is with many back injuries over the years and having DDD in the lumbar region, if I run full speed, this 245 lbs makes for a helluva jolt in the lumbar and I feel it for the next 3 days. Old age sucks.
Anyways, my wife & Jr were calling me out, so I said wtf and turned up the heat. I went all out for about 150 yards, smoked them, and about 2 hours later start feeling a pain in the extreme lower left abs - like to the left of the pubic area. It only hurts when I cough or contract the abs like when getting up out of bed.
I was scared thinking maybe a friggin' hernia, but nothing there - nothing protruding or if I push in hard I don't feel any lumps or bumps. Also, it doesn't hurt when I lift, which I hear is pretty common with hernias. Good thing is it's slowly getting better, but I never encountered such an injury just from running. Also never had an injury there. Anyone have this happen or hear of this?
