sun - 4 miles 35:00 Highland park with my lower leg taped tight.
Total 4
Decided to take a full week (actually 8 days off) of rest from running and x-training to let my right leg rest and hope the injury will subside. A fracture seems unlikely at this point since the pain cannot be pinpointed, but what do I know. I will recoup it as if it's medial tibial stress syndrome. The pain is between the ankle bone and bottom of the gastrocnemius muscle along the tibia. This week all I did was heal and toe lifts while seated and ice massage along the inside of my leg. I will try to ease back into some low mileage easy pace and see how it feels while using shin wrap method and heel cups.
