I'm injured already!
My second week of training so far has been spent limping around with Neuroma.
It feels like I'm walking on a bunched up sock, but barefoot. The bottom of my foot seems swollen, but it appears to be the same size as the other. When I told my Team in Training mentor about the pain she inquired about my running shoes. Right now, I'm running in an old pair of Adidas outside and a newer pair of Nike running shoes with great stability and cushion at the gym.
She told me two important things:
1. I need more cushion at the ball of my foot. My foot was clearly telling me this.
2. I need a bigger running shoe. One that has approximately half an inch space between in front of my longest toe.
With that... I need to get new running shoes!
I haven't run all week and I'm hoping to run at Saturday's practice. Until I get those shoes, it's ice on the foot.
