    pain on inner/outer leg 2" below calf? ... stretches, treatment?

    I just got back from the World Master Athletics competition and finishing the marathon. The sports doc for the event agreed it was a torn Peroneus muscle, but unlike the Tenerife doctor, thought that in 2 weeks it could cure well enough to do the marathon. He was right and with massage...

    pain on inner/outer leg 2" below calf? ... stretches, treatment?

    I just got back from the Kansas City marathon. It was a great, though hilly race. That same spot was a bit sore in the marathon and my left calf was a bit more sore than normal, which made me think that it overworked to compensate. I took the race really slow like a long workout and don't...

    pain on inner/outer leg 2" below calf? ... stretches, treatment?

    I just found this old thread using google, not the search engine of the site ... https://www.thebarefootrunners.org/threads/pain-on-outside-of-left-calf-muscle.3923/ I will foam roll it and NOT stretch it for starters.

    pain on inner/outer leg 2" below calf? ... stretches, treatment?

    I have a tender sore area that is right below my left calf and is most tender on the outer side of that leg. I assume is is part of the calf muscle? I have never developed pain in this area before and have not done anything new with training, racing, etc. I would greatly appreciate any...

    Almost Done Writing My Barefoot Running Book

    If having an "international barefoot runner" would be helpful for an Amazon review, I'd love to read it & do an Amazon review ... like bare footing, reading is another passion - Mateo in the Canary Islands.

    Elevated bilirubin level more OR less common in barefoot/sandal marathoners?

    I was considering the "impact induced effects" & the feet themselves while running and the relationship to red blood cells that then effect total bilirubin level measurements. I was curious that if we run with less impact than when wearing clunky shoes, then we should have less red blood cell...

    Elevated bilirubin level more OR less common in barefoot/sandal marathoners?

    I am not sure if this should go in Ask the Doc or Runners forum or where is best! :) ... life is so wonderfully holistic! I have had some blood work done (April 10) for my regular check ups (unrelated to sports, running) and all my levels were fine, except for my total bilirubin which was a...

    a "corn" with 6 days until a marthon

    I am 6 days away from a marathon that I plan to do with huaraches and barefoot. After doing 15kms yesterday, I felt a dull soreness (that I think is a corn?) that I would rank as a 4 on a scale of 0-10. It feels like it is a little harder than the sole near it, maybe a little thicker and it...

    san people running shod OR barefoot now a days?

    After seeing TJ's posted article from the cross country world championship in South Africa. I watched a documentary on the San people ("bushman") in South Africa to get inspired for the upcoming Madrid marathon sans shoes. In the documentary on Youtube they were usually barefoot, but when...

    foot "lesion" from volcanic rock: treat it like a blister?

    Paraganek, thanks for connecting me to your post! I took their advice and my foot is looking amazing. I am now not wearing a band-aid, but wear one when I ran in NewBalance Minimus as sandals rub right wear the opening is. I did 18kms that way a few days later, 8 kms a day ago. It is amazing...

    foot "lesion" from volcanic rock: treat it like a blister?

    Dr Emily, Thanks for the clear recommendations! Yes, I will try the betadine or iodine, but fearing I will cry like a baby with the sting! :)

    foot "lesion" from volcanic rock: treat it like a blister?

    I don't know what the medical term is, but I got the worst end of a relationship with a volcanic rock. Living in the Canary Islands, I learned very early in barefoot running that stepping on glass was a delight compared to sharp volcanic stones. However, I had a "run in" with a volcanic rock...

    Ahotu race calendar website has a barefoot tag in search engine

    I was on the Ahotu race calendar website that I know many use here in this part of the world use ... and noticed that they have "barefoot" as tag for the race. Not many races come up with the "barefoot" tag and I sent an e-mail to the site to see how they determine it is a "barefoot" race - I...
