Dieting for me these past few weeks didn’t really pay off. Turns out the few lbs I cut were insignificant when it came to taking weight/pressure off my shin to make it stop hurting
Nor did the compression sleeve help, nor did the foot inserts stop the pain. I should have realized no level of support was going to heal damage that already existed. I had two options, either let it rest and have weaker cardio (which I didn’t do), or gun it on it to reach an aerobic threshold where my cardio would actually improve and hurt it more (which I did)
Taking the past 5 days off before the race Sunday but will be expecting to run in pain
All I got for dieting was a nice pic. Getting a good pic is all about lighting and angles tbh. I’ll try for a full body one sometime
