Rail trail to monarch out to the valley. Trying not to get too exited about this fall-ish weather!

Yesterday I was on my feet for about 11 hours which normally would have made my lower leg super achy and painful but I ran all the way until 57mins today before I had any pain at all!

Calf feels tender but not sore. Area where I’ve been having pain isn’t as intense but still tender. Inner hamstring where I had some active release yesterday too is sore.

Our for a lil rip since class ended early. Wanted to see how my leg was doing. During the run there wasn’t really any pain in the regular spot, maybe a little achy. Then by 9 mins I could feel some stiffness where I had the stim in my calf. After the run the regular spot isn’t very sore like it normally is!
Probably a little too fast for a testing-it-out run but I was having fun.

Cycling (Spinning ) 10:00 [1]

Easy spin after some dry needling/stimulation work on my calf. The chiro said that the issue is coming from the outside of my calf being too tight and fatiguing early so that puts more strain on the medial side to compensate. Some tightness in the foot/ankle that doesn't allow my big toe to take any of the blow from the overpronation. Makes sense since my outer calves got sore prior to JWOC and then the tendon got sore.

Next steps:
- Intrinsic foot strengthening
- heavy eccentric loading heel raises
5 PM

Strength 25:00 [2]
ahr:110 max:166

First lift in a long time woooo.
Did only 2 sets to make sure my leg would be ok. It felt fine, just kind of funny since it felt so fatigued but I hadn’t done anything! (Just the stimulation)
Chin ups have gone downhill since May :( and my hands were so sore lol.

Then some core and foot exercises.

Note

Hello hello some news.
Saw our athletic therapist today and she noticed that where I’ve had my pain on my leg and where the injections have been that there is almost a small dent. Compared to my other leg, there is a small amount of muscle atrophy (loss of muscle) in that area and around my soleus. The muscles, tendons, and all of the other things traveling behind the ankle and into the foot have gotten ‘matted down’ and sticking to the bone. The muscles and tendons are all working like normal though which is really good!

Next steps:
1. Whole foot and lower leg exercises. And a lot of reps. #feeltheburn
2. May have dry needling done to stimulate the muscle.
3. Run with pain as a guide. Sharp pain = stop.
4. Reduce running mileage. One run workout a week for now. Lots of x training.
5. Stay positive!
4 PM
