Right Foot/Ankle Injury
Ok, I did something to my ankle yesterday. The outside arch of my right foot KILLS! Stuff online suggests that it might be a pulled peroneal tendon – which wraps around that outside part of the foot. The ankle is sore a bit by the ankle bone – also where the tendon goes. In any case, I bet that running on the snow is what did it. It is not just an uneven surface (dirt and trails is always plenty uneven – and not a problem) but it is an uneven surface that unpredictably sinks or depresses under your footfall. It is hard to gauge what its going to do for every foot fall, so I wonder if the brain has a hard time tensing up the right muscles to prepare for impact. In any case – I’m totally limping.
