So, I’ve had a great training block headed into IMLP in less than two weeks. Over the weekend my left peroneal tendon acted up - not during any workout, which is the weird thing. Was sore Sat afternoon then during first part of Sun long run, so bailed on run.
Anyway, went to see my sports podiatrist (2x Kona, Leadville finisher), and he thought it would resolve before the race with treatment, but advised no running. Did one round of EPAT and will do one more on Mon of next week. Plan is to do some water running, but would it be a good idea to do a bit more biking this week to compensate for missing around 4 hrs of running? I’m still feeling good about the race, but haven’t been in this situation before.
