Hi all
Posting for a friend
He is a 52 year old several IM finisher
In the last few months he has encountered leg pain in both legs whilst running - he says it feels like the last three miles of an IM and for a few days after his legs swell up. He is down to running 3 miles max 3 times per week real slow
On the bike his legs are much better but he cannot push - he rested his run legs for a few weeks but they still hurt a little bit on the bike , swelling is much less
He has been to his doctor who told him to rest without giving any indication of what the issue might be so he was of no use really
He does not know where to turn to for help - he had some blood work but he does not know what he might be looking for
Anyone had anything similar or any doctors in the Slowtwitch house ?
Many thanks
