5 weeks later and I'm still having intense Achilles pain. I can barely walk without limping. I had an ultrasound done and they confirmed that the Achilles was still in tact (not ruptured) but noted that there was a severe amount of inflammation, which is evident just looking at my Achilles. 38 pictures have been sent to my GP so I'll have to go and follow up with the GP on the best management practice. The radiologist noted that the inflammation was right where the Achilles and Heel connect, which is bad as wearing shoes constantly aggravates the injury and prolongs recovery time. As soon as I take my shoes off I feel instant relief.

damn man that sucks :/

sounds like solving that shoe problem is a big priority.

for runners, Mo Farah used to (maybe still does?) cut the back of his shoes to prevent that friction.

man RHONEX & Gebrhiwhet lap almost everyone.

RHONEX is next level. no question.

he might have the "easiest" stride i've ever seen.

came to post this tho.. this is disgusting.

crazy

after my light run this morning i did something I know i shouldn’t do: because it can retweak my issue or cause some slight damage -> but I did it anyway.

just leaning over touching the ground (with fingertips), stretching hamstring primarily, but just holding it for a few minutes, nice and relaxed.

areas in my right glute & sacral spine pulsate like a mfqr.

it’s felt great since. i’m curious to see how it feels during my light run tonight.

but that’s one of my mental problems - I get very annoyed when I can’t do something. For example, the fact that I can’t stay in that position without the risk of injuring this glute area, bugs the fu*k out of me. People advise against that stretch but i’ve done it my whole life, just feels like a normal movement. Prior to the injury, I could do this movement (+ holding that position for a while) without any problems. I’d do that stretch occasionally, almost like it’s an instinct. Lately i’ve been wanting to do it, but I prevent myself because of fear of re-tweak. I need whatever is jacked up in there to just let go and relax & stfu. Would be amazing. FWIW: feels pretty good right now. Maybe it’s at that stage where I can do it without re-tweak and it’ll help instead of hurt.

did a test tonight. tried to run at basically the same effort, on the same segment, and see what pace it was when i got home.

last night in heavy shoes: 0.38 mi @ 06:03 min/mi
tonight in light shoes (1/2 the weight): 0.39 mi @ 05:18 min/mi

funny. can't really do it once like that but it's obvious i can't run fast in heavy shoes. hehe.
