Tarsal tunnel syndrome


Last night I had an injection into my tendan at the top of my foot, not the greatest feeling in the world, but it seems that all my training for the marathon has alerted my body to the fact I've been suffering with tarsal tunnel syndrome.

It basically means that when I've done about 4 miles my foot starts to go numb until it's so numb and uncomfortable I have to stop and shake it out. Needless to say it's put a dent in my training.

They say training for a marathon is an adventure and I can say now I understand why, it pushes your body as far as it will go, and while things like this happen, I have to say I'm enjoying seeing what my body is capible of, we are tough little machines!!
