Heel Spur (Originally written November 12, 2008

Heel Spur

Well, I got my ankle x-ray results yesterday and it showed that I have a heel spur. I don't know how that is affecting my pre-existing tendonitis in that area but I'm sure it is being aggravated by it. I'm seeing the podiatrist this coming Friday and see what he says about how I can rehabilitate the ankle and get back to running. Today, I was able to walk for an hour with the help of a pair of trekking poles with minimal pain. I don't like walking as an exercise so much because it burns even lesser calories than the stationary bike, but it's a break from pedaling in place and I got to exercise outdoors again. I miss the endorphin high that running gives me.
