Cheilectomy / Microfracture (Read 105 times)

    I had the above done about 8 weeks ago.  I am walking but there is definite tenderness in the dorsal aspect of the toe.

     

    Doctor says it's okay - but, of course, okay for a person who just wants to walk is different than a person who wants to run.

     

    Anyone had this done and if so, how long until you stopped thinking about your toe?

      Hey, how are you now? There's a post on Runners World about someone who's gone back to running a month or two after the operation. But, of course, it could be different from case to case.

          What the hell is Runner's World?

          We are the music makers,

              And we are the dreamers of dreams,

          Wandering by lone sea-breakers,

              And sitting by desolate streams; 

          World-losers and world-forsakers,

              On whom the pale moon gleams:

          Yet we are the movers and shakers

              Of the world for ever, it seems.

            Oh honey. It's real cute. They've got all kinds of cute tips for runners. Nothing snooty and nothing like that elitist magazine, Runner's Times was it? They will hook you up with tips on how to race everything and anything. Color runs, mud runs, foam runs.. that's just the beginning. Did you know that anyone can run a marathon?! You don't have to run a whole lot, maybe 2-3 days a week, as long as you are stretch before every run, drink 10 8oz glasses of water per day (and that doesn't count bringing water with you on your run), you're going to need electrolytes and lots of gus, a phone app to keep you motivated, and maybe a watch. It's all about balance. You don't want to get obsessed with just running. You will need to cross train. Stretching and strengthening. Nutrition.. you want to make sure you are getting enough sugar and other nutrients....   I could go on!!! LOL!!!!!!!!

                Wow. Clearly I have been doing it all wrong. I'll have to start reading it before my next color foam 5k marathon.
