I only wish I could help you like you've helped me!<br /><br />Only thing I might consider in your situation is to lay off test runs? That was something I did with my achilles & I honestly think I will come back to full speed faster because of it. Granted, then you never know if you're making progress (or the exact moment you're able to run... I maybe could have been back a day or two sooner), but allowing the body to rest & repair itself is so crucial...<br /><br />but also so agonizing because the Trials are so close.<br /><br />I'll be watching this closely, and praying for a QUICK recovery for you. <br />*Hugs!* NicholeNicholenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-32846226828689672892011-11-27T22:28:44.667-08:002011-11-27T22:28:44.667-08:00That's a sad face!

Yes, overcoming adversity beats easy wins every time.<br /><br />The ElliptiGo looks a great move for cross-training. As well as the leg movement benefit, much easier to get the HR up than with cycling and more efficient I'd presume too (similar times in HR zones as for running). Good luck. Hope it's a while before we see more blister photos ;)Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-69739348812547497512011-11-27T05:55:28.193-08:002011-11-27T05:55:28.193-08:00Sorry to hear of your injury, but I'm delighte...Sorry to hear of your injury, but I'm delighted that you're receiving excellent counsel and treatment. I think it's great that you've found the ElliptiGo (which I've been intrigued by for over a year since first learning that Dean Karnazes uses it, and by watching their videos realized that its motion is exactly that of an eliptical.) Combined with pool running these should maintain your cardiovascular system and the majority of your running-specific fitness and neuromuscular patterning until your tendinopathy and associated inflamation is fully addressed. Be safe on your ElliptiGo, however, recognizing that a rider on the road is inherently more vulnerable and less agile in avoiding the unexpected than a runner. Good luck, and I hope you have a speedy recovery!Mark U.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04792726660751354015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-23721821921455602042011-11-27T03:39:07.435-08:002011-11-27T03:39:07.435-08:00Scheisse :( I was excited to see a new post from y...Scheisse :( I was excited to see a new post from you in my reader but this is not what i wanted to reqd.

They are located in Granite Bay. The treatments work to help speed recovery and inflamation. Better than an ice bath. If you ever want to go let me know and I will meet you there. Localized treatments have done wonders for my recent sprained ankle. I started seeing Dr. Lau 1 year ago and I see him ever 3 weeks as part of my maintance plan. Everything will workout!

Granted, this isn't running and a normal activity for your body. What's your HR on your easy runs?<br /><br />Definitely, seek out the acupuncture! It took me one treatment to get rid of it, after 2 years of my butt cheek getting sore/weak!

I finally transitioned to an adjustable "sit/stand" keyboard and PC set-up at my work cube and it has helped a great deal. Hang in there!!

I think this crop...Ouch. Two years? That stinks.<br /><br />I think this cropped up from running too much hard mileage without having the time to properly recovery (sleep, rolling, massage, etc.). Add to that a lot of other work-related stress and a ton of sitting and you get a recipe for injury disaster. <br /><br />I have a good acupuncturist in town and will add that to the mix of treatments for the next few weeks. Thanks for the reminder! I need to pull out all the stops at this point.<br /><br />My max HR is somewhere between 185-195. Not sure exactly. My tempo runs are typically in the low-mid 170s. I actually run between 165-170 for marathon pace. So, yes, that's how high I typically run.<br /><br />Thanks for the encouragement! See you in Houston.Jaymeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01680519617786773673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668199593986982895.post-65670334492972505532011-11-26T13:31:37.081-08:002011-11-26T13:31:37.081-08:00Wow, this is a bummer to hear!

I had that butt cheek pain for 2 years (got really bad on long runs/marathons), and the only thing that completely got rid of it was acupuncture.<br /><br />Oh yeah, is that how high your heart rate normally is??<br /><br />Keep up the hope! There's still lots of time to get back to good health and fit!Camillenoreply@blogger.com
