Today I ran 1.5 miles. I had to stop just short of the 1/2 way point to stretch out, I also made some circles with my feet and genrally shook out all the kinks, then again, about 3/4 of the way where I sat for a minute as well and rested, and stretched out my hams a bit, which were also tight and sore. I don't want to jump the gun and go back to the docs, at least not until I have tried a stretching regime. I may go about the foot pain, as it's getting worse, though I don't think there's much I can d...

Right now i finished my last doctors appointment and he said that we are on track but it is slow and that is annoying more than anything. 2 of my incisions are still not fully healed and one is still almost 3/4 of the way which is an issue because i am still trying to keep it mostly out of water (lake and river water) and it doesn't always look the greatest. I do have to say that almost all of the pain that i had before surgery is gone. I have been feeling great and have only had a few cramping incid...

Stretches?: compartment_syn

There is so much conflicting information out there. I lapsed all winter. Couldn't afford a gym membership, and there is no running outside where I live (too much snow and ice) and well, I was bad, what can I say? They aren't nearly as tight before I run, and it's easier to do these stretches. I mean, not being warm? So, I know what stretches to do, I'm just not sure when to do them, when is best. Should I do them before (and whenever I go up my stairs), or after and put up with the pain, or both?

Hey everyone - hopefully someone is still listening because I'm going to take a shot in the dark here. Basically since the year began I've been trying to run. I've been stopped each time due to pain in my lower calf at the back, about where my soleus muscle is - where the achilles attaches to the calf. If I squeeze right there I do feel a lump and it is painful - but it doesn't hurt unless I'm running and it hurts for awhile after I run. The only thing I worry about is that they are in a state of hard-an...

Awake my soul (. This community has become a little quiet lately. i don't even know if anyone is reading it anymore, but i thought i would do a quick post. It's been just over three months since surgery. i've cut down on my running significantly after i was dealing with some pains from over doing things. cut down to the point where i actually haven't run in over two weeks. i did play basketball the other day though, which was great at the time.but not so great now.

I have had some pain since the surgery but it is not as bad and it doesn't take long to go away. Mostly I get a feeling of tightness and sometimes my calves get tight but not unbearable. Hopefully everyone else is feeling better and enjoying the summer. Post a new comment. Anonymous comments are disabled in this journal. We will log you in after post. We will log you in after post.

Awake my soul (. In order to drop some weight so i'm not carrying too much when i start running, and also in an attempt to improve my cardio levels, i have signed on with my trainer at the gym. he's actually my sister's trainer and has give me and her a wicked deal of 3 sessions a week for a month. he is a tough trainer, which is surprising for someone who is only about 5'6!

Awake my soul (. I had a pretty good breakthrough last night! At least for now i believe it was! Because the weather has been so incredibly gorgeous here lately (sorry to rub it in to those out east! I haven't felt these kind of sore muscles in ages. oh running, how i've missed you! So overall i'm stoked! Post a new comment. Anonymous comments are disabled in this journal.

Awake my soul (. Since there seems to be some activity here I guess I should do a post of my own! I think in my last post I wrote about how I'm still having regular pain in my legs on a daily basis. Not so much when exercising, but more so post-exercise. And that I haven't been running because of this. Why would I want to go and do an activity that I know will cause me pain later on right?
