Got new skis today and really wanted to go test them out, but didn’t want to take any risks with my leg :(
Went for a walk and it felt good but still stiff afterwards and tender most of the time.

My log is like 50 shades of blue.

Probably could have gone longer but playing it safe.

Now, after getting out of the pool, leg is feeling kind of stiff and still tender.

Note

One more day of full rest and will start core again on the weekend, and then back into biking/pool running next week, and running by the week after. Leg is much better to walk and I have full movement again. Still very tender to touch.
C • Sounds like a plan. 1

Wednesday Mar 14, 2018 #

Note

Pain is improving but still not a comfortable feeling. Swelling is minimal so that's good!

News news news!

So I finally got an answer to my injury!
After the ultrasound today it seems that i’ve been having symptoms of some chronic tendon thickening in my tib post tendon. The tissue layer surrounding the tendon has gotten so thick that it’s restricting blood flow in the area, and limiting its movement next to the bone, and that’s why it’s painful. Got an injection of cortisone using the ultrasound which was so gross and so cool at the same time.
One week of rest and then slowly building back up.
C • Interesting! 8

Note
(rest day)

Glad to have rest with such a busy week.
The numbing has worn off in my leg and the injection site definitely doesn't feel comfortable. It's not that sore to walk on, just if I put my foot at a weird angle... then it's bad. Mostly like this pulsing pressure. Will see in the morning if I need to walk around with crutches on campus or not...

Note

Will be getting an ultrasound to look at my tibialis posterior tendon on Tuesday. It is possibly inflamed or thickened and causing the pain. Fingers crossed we can figure out what’s wrong and go about a quick treatment! I just wanna run!!!!

Sunday Mar 4, 2018 #

Note

A little bit of running here and there helping out at the final OCUP this morning. Felt fine but I felt like my HR was sky-rocketing. Leg got tight while standing out in the cold and the bottoms of my feet are very tight right now too, but what a gorgeous day for a race! Wish I could have raced it!

Feeling super tired recently so I may take today off.

Got out and enjoyed the sunshine! Ride was longer and hillier than planned since the rail trail was too slick and snowy. Not sure if that was a good idea for my leg or not... regardless, a beauty day!
