The PT and ortho think that's the problem- that it's putting too much stress on my tendons. We will see what they say this time around!

Congrats! Have you thought about using Locklaces for your shoes? They are elastic and I use them in all my running shoes. They keep your shoes from feeling too tight as your feet swell as you run. Good luck and hope the foot is fine!Two Runners Travel https://www.blogger.com/profile/10446814348862304394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483808524582624189.post-61464379215827688202014-09-07T17:33:16.256-04:002014-09-07T17:33:16.256-04:00Thanks!

And a little gain isn't a big deal- you've got a whole new week to be awesome. Nice meeting you!

Congrats on the being an Enell ambassador (I love their bras!) and being featured on runchat. I hope the foot pain is not anything to worry about. Hope you feel better. Let's see the high was that I can 2 miles each day of the Labor Day weekend. The low was that I was up a bit on scale this week because of Labor Day weekend festivities. It's all good I expected it, that's why I kept on top of my runs! Cheers to a new week!

I have a half this weekend and next weekend that I am planning on doing unless he orders me not to. I will be walking a lot of it, lol. And I have not ran since Tuesday and don't plan on it. I'll be swimming this week and possibly doing some stationary bike. I look at it this way- worst case scenario- I defer all my fall races, rest 6-8 weeks, and use Wine and Dine (9 weeks from now) as my comeback race. That is, hoping I don't lose all my conditioning if I have to rest it. I'm hoping I can still do some water running and other cardio to keep in shape. We'll see.

I've been dealing with feet issues my...Oh no!!! I've been dealing with feet issues myself.. top of foot pain on my left that took me out for 2 months! (Podiatrist said it was a cyst.. but I really think it was a stress fracture. Didn't show up on xray, but no other tests were done to confirm diagnosis or rule out a SF.) Anyways... KILLED me not to run! Now, I'm having a little bit of an issue here and there with my right foot.. and I'm SOOO paranoid that every little twinge is freaking me out. So I REALLY know how you feel! My advice (and sorry it's not very happy!) back off a little. Reduce the high impact.. maybe ease up on the mileage a bit.. MAYBE take a week off and see if that resets things. Listen to your body and stop when you feel pain. (I know you probably know all this.. but it's all I got.) Hoping the best for you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06340944483797393022noreply@blogger.com
