running Gma Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 I am a c25k grad. and have one official 5k under my belt...on a workout run this past week in the very cold weather, I finished with some pain in my left lower leg, upper ankle. It's in the spot that would be opposite of my shin. I iced and wrapped tight, then ran a Turkey trot the next morning. Then both legs hurt in the same place. What muscle or tendon is that and how did do that? I have been resting , wrapping and elevating it now. Wandering if it's just cold weather running or cold muscles???

Lexy Moore Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Take a break until you ate feeling better. Ice and elevate. Make sure you stretch good once you're healed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REllis Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 If it feels like it is right in the middle of your calf muscle, it might be your Plantaris tendon. I ruptured mine several years ago. It wouldn't let me put my foot flat on the ground. If you are finding it more painful to have your foot in a dorsiflexion position, that is most likely your culprit.

Pitstop Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Ive just been reading about stress fractures, so may be worth ruling that out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
