Yeah, that's what I was thinking Tater.
Up on the side of the foot? Mine on the bottom of my foot continues to hinder my ability to run in the morning -- it takes about 15min of walking before I can stand on it. It has gone from something that is usually painful to more of a constant tightness that just hurts in the morning. 40 miles in 2 days over the weekend did not help it.

Yep it's on the side, like to the right of my Achilles, just behind the big ankle bone. It hurts more on the back/inside of my foot when I run, but is tender to the touch on the outside spot.

That may be the exact issue I have, except mine hurts down at the insertion point in the bottom of the heel. Hopefully not being in the pounding zone yours heals a lot faster.

12 painful miles last week. There's apparently a knot in my upper calf that is grabbing everything (knee, shin). Had one session with an ART guy. He found and drilled it last Tues. Man.

When I saw him the day before he hinted that pain was in your future. Heh.
Not at it at all.

Whatever it takes.
Yeah, and that was after he worked on my ass.
Whoa!
So, you know [Mr. Finn]...
Yeah, dude, I'm the one who sent him to your mancave.
I look my best blurry!
You're popping impressive mileage for being injured...
Yeah, you're lucky with the Alter G. Sounds like it's been working well for you though. The tough part of running is interpreting the good pain versus bad pain versus growing pains... You just don't know many times so we keep pounding ourselves until we just sometimes can't go anymore.
BTW, no hugs here just kicks in the you know what. Smalcolm, sorry to hear about your issue. Never good when it's tender to the touch.
Apparently my achilles is pretty inflammed/tight. I'll take a few days off, ice, and take the Stick to it. We'll see how it goes.
take the Stick to it
I was going to recommend that.
ood start. For me (couple of years with no issues) the Stick did not hit the proper place. I had to use trigger point work to get to the soleous which was the main issue. Not hard to check - find the trigger point book in local library and perform a self eval. Well worth the time. Good luck.

I will definitely give the stick a go and look into the trigger point stuff. Should have done something a week ago when my calf tightened up. I just kept making it worse. I got in to see my chiro/PT guy today and he did some ART/Graston. That hurt so good. Hopefully this does not linger.
