Evening running buddies. Sorry I haven't been here much as work has been very busy. Not great news from the Physio today. I still have Post Tibial Tendonitis. Here's the latest
Me - Managed a 2 mile run/walk last night calf/ankle was fine while running. Physio and how is it today? Me: Sore but not as bad as it's been. Physio: Don't run if it is sore. Increase your distance by no more than 10% each week. Keep doing your stretching exercises and here are some strength ones. No more 10ks for you. Me: So how long is it going to take to fix it. Physio: 8-10 weeks as long as you don't overdo it but make sure you load the tendon or it could take longer.
So summary. You can run if it doesn't hurt. Do your exercises and you can cross/train. Ensure you have a rest day. This will take a looooonnnnggggg time. See you next week
DAMN IT!
Hope you are all enjoying your running it's a major pain when you can't

Oh no. That's sad news. What a shame. But you will get better. It's not forever. I can feel your frustration though but you are doing everything right. Sighing for you.
Aww GF - that's pants! so sorry the news isn't better. I don't blame you for sounding so fed up. In a few months time you will be able to look back on this as a temporary blip in your running career. Try to be patient in the meantime And get better soon.
Oh ruddy eck! You must be well peed off. hang in there GF cos you know you can't afford to make it worse so you just have to take a chill pill mate. it won't be too long now
Sorry to hear that GF,its nice to hear that you can get out in small doses, im sure you'll be sensible as its for the best, but what a B****R for you. Take care wont you and keep us posted, hugs for you and Rico
Sympathies GF. Thought you'd escaped the IC Seems to me that thinking you're ok and then finding you're not is worse than knowing you're stuck here for the long haul. I'll shove up and make room for you again x
That is a pity but look how fast 9 weeks went with the programme so 7/8 weeks will fly by. Just look on it as a slightly different training programme without Laura! Keep the chin up there is a large light at the end of the tunnel.
