Everything you need to know about hamstring injuries

The hamstring plays a critical role in the running gait, but it's also a likely candidate for injury. Leading running physio Tom Goom (running-physio.com) has a particular specialism in the hamstring, and comes on the show to tell us how runners can strengthen and/or heal their hammies.
