Just about ready to just cut this stupid foot off!! If it's not one thing it's another. Since doing the half I have been able to do some 4-5 mile runs and two 7 mile long runs and feel pretty decent. My PF has been feeling better and better. Back a few months ago I had been experiencing some ankle pain and it just being tender when I do certain leg workouts. But this past week or so it has been getting worse. I had set out to do a run and wound up just walking. Well I wound up running about .75 miles then walking two. It's at the top of my foot over into my ankle a bit. So I had a follow up appointment with my foot dr on 10/15 but called and moved it up to this past Friday. He took xrays and said he seen nothing and that it probably was bruised and if I keep running on it then it could lead to a stress fracture. He gave me some medicine to take and said I should be feeling better by the end of taking my meds. It's better but not completely. It's really, really stiff in the morning but just a little achy through out the day, especially if I'm on it a lot. The dr told me no running but doing the elliptical was fine. So, thats what I have been doing.
I dont know, maybe its just time that I completely let this heal and when it does then start back a little on my running. It's not the end of the world right?
Has any of you had a foot issue like this? What did you do and how long did it take to heal?
