How long does it take for over use or biomechanic injuries to appear...
Ex. I started running in November of 2002, since then I estimate that I have run close to if not just over 2000 miles. I'm a heavy runner at 180-190 pounds. It took me 6 months and 5 different pairs of shoes to find my current Pearl Izumi Vital+, which I have been running in for the past 18 months. 5 weeks ago, as I was ramping up for the Philedelphia Marathon, I ended up with a nueroma and now left with some sort of metatarsalga. Is this a shoe issue, insert issue or just a plain simple overuse injury which could have been prevented by just ending my season after my "A" race instead of tacking on an end of season marathon. (I'll mention I have never run in a marathon. Yet...)
