Four weeks in an air cast, four weeks since getting a steroid injection to knock down remaining inflammation and make way for healing while immobilized in the boot.
For now, PF is gone. This is a good thing. Now I can begin to return to the activities I want to pursue.
Next up is Physical Therapy. I am expecting focused stretches and exercises to strengthen and stretch the feet, perhaps with a bit of consideration for the whole chain, up on leg and down the other. Perhaps they can address what needs to happen for intermittent pain elsewhere... In any event, I don't expect to stay with P/T long. The objective is to better prepare so that I can keep active in the future, whether that's through exercises, tools, whatever. Retrain so that I'm better off.
Its been five months since I ran, and it will probably be another month before I am running regularly again. A few more months after that to get any form of speed or endurance back.
First step, get a plan.
