- pain on top of left foot
- peroneal tendonitis
- right knee pain
- left hamstring stuff
- bruised ego
After the two weeks of meh mileage and two weeks back to close to normal, I'm starting to feel a little bit better. Unfortunately, both the right foot and knee are still requiring some ibuprofen to keep from any flare ups. Some days it feels absolutely brutal, and others not so bad. I'm looking forward to that not being the case...
