Wayne, This is Ann McElroy. I have not seen you in forever, our sons played baseball together years ago... can't remember if it was Michael or Thomas that played with Scotty, I think Michael. Anyway. I had a foot pain last week and laid off doing anything and iced and advil. I got new shoes also. On Sat.... the shoes made my toes cramp up, so I will maybe go back to my old shoes. My question.... about mile 3 or so, my groin on my right side (same side as my toes cramping) began to hurt, by about mile 9 it was really bad. This has happened once before but not near as bad and it went away after the run. It was still hurting yesterday, today is better. Do you think it was because I had not done anything all week and I maybe did not stretch enough. Any words of prevention?
hey ann...probably didnt stretch enough..dont know if i'd go back to the old shoes cause they might be shot..also,not running for a week sure didnt help...keep me posted...i cant even remember when scotty played baseball,so you ay have to give me another clue : )
Wayne, This is Micah Taylor. I have been having problems with my ITB band. I thought I had it almost nixed but you know how that goes. My knee felt fine during the run but my left hip area hurt a little after the 9th mile area. Mark said it was still the ITB. A few hours after the run I began feeling it in my knee again. I am stretching, rolling it and icing occasionally. Do you have any other advice or am I doing everything already. Normally my knee bothers me after about 5 miles but Saturday my knee felt great.
micah...thx for asking...the stretches are very important with ITBS...they should be done 3-4 x's a day..and it's important to do the RIGHT ones...if you ever have time you can drop by my office and i'll give you a few pointers...also sometimes a little wedge can be put in the back outer corner of your shoe that helps"tilt" you in a bit and that takes some pressure off your knee..wayne
Wayne, This is Theresa Perry. During our 10 mile run at Fleet Feet I started to get cramps in my toes on my right foot. I took Mark's advice and relaxed my foot and since then I have pain in the middle of my right foot just below my middle toe. Now the bottom of my foot feels swollen all the time even when I wear my house shoes. When I ran the 12 miles the following week I just decided that maybe it was the shoes so I went in to Fleet Feet and bought new shoes and cushions but during the 13.1 mile run this past Saturday I had pain in my right foot from the very start all the way to the end of the run. What do you suggest?
Wayne, my knees are getting better. I'm doing the leg lifts with ankle weights and stretching. But I have been having problems with my groin. It's a pain in the pit of the groin and lower stomach--any suggestions?
theresa--thx for coming on...looks like you may have something called metatarsalgia...a big long word for mid foot pain...sometimes we can put a little pad behind that toe to relieve pressure..i did it for cheryl jones and i think she likes it...talk to her...but the best thing for you to do is swing by and let me check it (at no charge)..call me 355 9624...not too busy on tues and thurs...wayne

You ARE da man! Thanks for everything!
Wayne,
I think the groin thing was a one-time event. I haven't had any more problems. I do appreciate your answer though. Thanks a lot.
