Relative rest

Tuesday evening I rode the angriest bike ride since the last one. For an hour I pushed through pain so that my eyes started to hurt. And then I just continued to push my luck for some more (about extra 20km). On Wednesday morning I spent some time with core workouts and stretching hamstring and achilles. My current "rehab" program contains relative rest, stretching calves for 20 or more minutes per day, eccentric strengthening of leg and glute muscles, ultra sound, and ice therapy. If they don't help, then I'm ready for doctor's knife. 

Today morning I almost repeated the angry ride but butt/hamstring is now so sore that I'm pedaling only with my right leg. Tomorrow I'll meet a doctor and my buddy cortisoneeeeeee.
