Tell us about your training.
I had run Revel in 2014, so was familiar with the course. I had ruptured my left hamstring during that race and then ruptured my right one while running Boston...I somehow finished both races, knowing I was in significant pain, but didn't realize the extent. Had surgery to reattach the right hamstring on 8/25 and had the left repair surgery on 11/3--non-weight bearing crutches for 3 1/2 months. Started training with two very atrophied legs, and a June marathon was ambitious, but I knew I would need the fast course. Ran Lookout mountain and some of the trails around Boulder...but had to train very conservatively since hamstring tendons were still healing down to the bone and I didn't want a re-rupture and third surgery. It all worked out in the end.
