They come up, and I get over them in a few days with no fuss.
Last week, I got heel pain after a longer flat run in Z2. Probably from doing this workout too soon after a trail race.
How did I get over it?
- reduced but did not stop running
- did isometrics (ground squeezes with the feet and static calf raises)
- kept doing strength work as usual (heavy leg work at the moment)
- applied KT taping
- massaged lower calf and anterior tibialis
Barely a bump in the road.
I think it’s not only the approach but the fact that I’m always doing strength training that helps me get over these things so quickly.
