Running toward summer...June runs

[indysteel]

Guess I'm not running my half marathon in a week and a half.

I either have a stress fracture or an inflamed nerve in the tibiofibular joint. (So, either a nerve that hurts because of a reason, or one that just randomly started hurting).

At least I can ride my bike again without pain.

Oh Jess, what a bummer. I'm sorry.

Jess, sorry to hear that. I feel your frustration! My diagnosis-via-collective-wisdom (which includes an ortho FNP and an ortho acquaintance who admittedly does mostly shoulders) is extensor tendon tendonosis/itis (aka...kid you not...ultramarathoner's ankle). Mine is getting better but still no running & stairs. I've been riding a bit too, which is fine for about an hour and if I don't try to stand. Stupid.overuse.injury. I'm glad I have been able to do what I have post-surgery, though. Always remember that things could be very different!

Nice to see so many people enjoying the trails!

Thanks guys! I'm not getting any closer to knowing what this is, but the general consensus is that it doesn't matter. Treatment for any of it would be the same and essentially I shouldn't do anything that causes pain.

(At least it is keeping me from shopping, since walking around with no purpose isn't worth it at the moment!)
