I went to the PT today to have him check out my shin and calf, he ruled out a stress fracture momentarily, and he taped me up pretty good and then had me go and run but the result was pretty much the same. It was better but I had the same problem as yesterday, the longer I went the worse it got so that's pretty disappointing. I had some serious throbbing pain after I completed the run too which was frustrating! I went from hopefully PR-ing to now just hoping I can finish the race, and if I wasn't in the runners series I would probably be bailing on the race! But I need to at least finish so I can get the automatic spot for the St. George Marathon, I will not run Thursday or Friday and I hope that the extra days off and his tape job will get me through it. My PT will be down in ST. George so he will tape me the night before and then I'll just have to hope and pray. I was just getting back in shape and now this, very frustrating! Oh well, such is my life when it comes to running. Later.
