As of last week I am "on my own", after 2 PT prescriptions (9 sessions)
I think I can manage my thigh muscle well with rolling, less so the tibialis anterior, and running 10-11K is still about as much as I can take, and about a total of 15-20K a week.
But listen to my newest theory: I think it gets more aggravated from cycling than from running!
No, really.
And I think my flat feet are half of the problem (I've put superfeet in my cycling shoes and I believe my legs are being worked in entirely new ways). I *think* I detected a visible muscular imbalance on the inside of my calves - and with superfeet they are being worked.
Here's the rest of the theory.
In Mallorca, the tibialis anterior and my hip flexor got aggravated again. I feel I can manage that if I take care to adjust my right leg as the guy told me last year during my fitting - my right knee was too far out, as was my heel.
But I still have the trouble that I believe my right shoe is somehow crooked, does not fit. Although during the fitting, the cleats were put in their optimal position, I point my foot down to slip further into the toebox often, because it just feels different than the left. And if I don't, the tibialis "aches".
I think I'll invest in another pair of shoes, to be tested and fitted at the shop that fit my bike.
