I had an appointment with my primary doctor today. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that he is a marathon runner too. He definitely understands running injuries and injury prevention. We talked about running form, posture, gait, stretching, etc. He gave me a lot of good advice today. When I told him about my pains, he had a good idea what it was. When I showed him my foot, he confirmed that his suspicions were correct. I have posterior tibial tendonitis. He said I can run, but I need to listen to my body and let the pain be the guide. Of course, plenty of rest and ice was recommended too. This is giving me the green light to start preparing for the Carlsbad Half Marathon in two weeks. :)
