After about two weeks of nursing the feet and legs on the treadmill and the bike, this week I'm going to be hitting the road again to see how I hold up. I have a scheduled couple miles on the treadmill and a strength training workout scheduled for tomorrow, and then a nice 6 miles on Wednesday followed by 15 or so with the Team In Training group in Newton on Saturday. Hopefully the knee/shin/ and toes can hold up.
After an appointment with my chiropractor last week, he informed me that the reason both of my toes were in so much pain was basically tyhat my toes are crooked. They have been all I know, so I didn't realize that both my big toes point inward about 15-20 degrees and are not straight like everyone else's. So that angle puts a ton of force and pressure on the joint between the big toe and the foot. As a result, I need to do some stretches of my toes tendon to hopefully try to straighten out my toe and just tape up my foot nice and solid.
We'll see how this week goes...
