Which tendons were troubleing you Yomper
Re: Hello! I'm new to *everyth
The one that runs down the inside of my leg, over my inner ankle bone. When standing on the floor, heels down, the one that raises your toes/foot. Also corresponding swelling on the outside ankle, but not much pain there.
The doctor prodded my ankle and I launched myself off the chair sideways... it's pretty tender.
I've been icing and elevating and ibuprofening and *trying* to rest. And today I can walk up and down stairs without hanging on to the bannister and swearing, which is an improvement!

I'm going to start from scratch again, but with loads more warming up, cooling down, stretching and stuff.
Wish I had your doctor, Yomper!
Might be worth looking at your foot strike, along with everything else, with a good sports physio. Actually, I would DEFINITELY recommend that. I'm sure someone on here will suggest a good one near you if you ask.

achilles?
Re: Hello! I'm new to *everyth
when you get going again pop into Rossendale if that is your closest club they will give you sound advice and the do if i can remember still have begginer sessions mondays is it?
Re: Hello! I'm new to *everyth
Nope not achilles, that's at the back. Umm, anterior tibilalis tendonitis? Anyway, still sore, did walk into town (2 miles) yesterday and today without whimpering so it's improving.
I think I'm a looooong way off going to the club, it's at the Marl Pits, because even as a beginner I'll not keep up with people. How far/fast do people run on club nights? I'm going to be the embarrassing red faced staggerer hailing a bus.

Hi,
my 1st ever post - so be nice please :D
Yomper, as a reletively newbie to the world of fell, I've been suffering some tendon troubles with my feet / lower leg too. From what you're describing it sounds like all the lateral movement has inflamed your flexor digi longus which work opposite to the peronaeus muscles to lift / scrunch the toes. I've had trouble with one foot & the toes going numb, pain up the outside of my lower leg, pain ontop of the foot. Went to see a good sports fizz, who told me I've got a hyper-mobile right ankle, hence the extended movements & soreness aorund my lower leg / foot.
It probably wasn't helped by doing a fell race nearly every 2 weeks since October, but hey ho! Now that the last one of the winter series is over (Gisborough Moors - cracking!), I can rest up a bit :thumbup:
Cheers, make of this what you will..............
