Update on my LTSS

Had physio again today, things are progressing nicely. The doctor is a real commedian which makes the 90 minutes I am there bareable. My tendon has calmed down considerably from last week but still needs to be cared for. He recommended starting to water run, which I've done before in the past, to give it some resistance training without the pounding. So things look brighter than they did before which is good cause I am having dreams about running now. Figure that out. Anyway friends, peace be yours.

Seems like I can't run again, for a while at least

I am sure that all of you, or at the very least, the one of you that may read this are wondering where I have been for the past two weeks. Seems that I have developed Lateral Tibial Stress Syndrome which is easily misdiagnosed as shin splints but is something completely different. The rehab is about the same but if you try to run through the pain, because the inflammation is in the sheath of the tendon, it will only cause it to become inflamed again, more painful and more time off. So, I am to apply direct ice, not ice pack, increase my Advil considerablly and get physio once a week at least. Shame cause the weather has been perfect for running lately. So, I will return as soon as the pain has abated and continue with this little blog here. Peace friends.
