I have been running minimalist (Vibrams KSO) for about 2 years and I have consistently has pain behind my right ankle. After closely looking at my right foot, it seems like the arch is lower than that of my left. Not sure if these are related, but nevertheless, I wanted to let you know.
That said, I have no pain at all on my left side except for maybe a slight shin splint every so often.
The pain behind my ankle usually starts when I hit 1.5 miles and only gets worse. It seems to spread all around my ankle the further I run. The longest I've been able to endure this pain is 13.1 miles and that pain was terrible.
I have looked at KT tape to try to relieve the pain, but i'm not sure how I would need to tape my ankle and/or arch.
Please help.
