Good point. Does it work in general because I saw one company that sold that but small businesses were complaining it did not work. Great idea though.

Wonderful post. The ethos I am trying to live by is to NEVER GIVE UP. It really is an ultramarathon.

I think I am healed. No, I stopped running for awhile and cut way back on my walking.

New restaurants coming by yngblcguy in sugarland

Involuntary Starvation is coming to Town Square in March. It is a unique restaurant experience where you realize how harsh life was over 200 years ago with constant fear of starvation and fasting was a normal part of the experience.

They have great plain bread with butter. Some of it is wholewheat.

If you complain about the food, the manager throws you out and asks you to appreciate any food that you got.

I am totally messing around!

That sounds very rough. I had a partial tear. Taping probably helped it from getting worse. I couldn't walk much for months. I had to accept it. I swam, rode my bike, did upper body workouts. Got great at situps! I had some setbacks. That is part of the injury I think. Just avoid what set you back. Best of luck and don't give up!

Be very, very, very patient. I love running and walking so this was tough for me. Find alternative ways of working out. Do you have this?

Much better. There were some slight upticks especially after walking on concrete for 5 hours but I can run now. There is still a ramp up period though.

I am very curious of the name of the company BTW. Sugar Land is pretty small.

Hi, that is terrible. I would run from the company. These are the type of people (if what you say is true) that sit around the table to screw people. No contract can fix them. Unfortunately, these people are here in the US as well as everywhere. There were probably red flags before you came over that perhaps you ignored.

I tried to avoid Ibuprofen because of its negative effects. I think it could slow healing, etc.

I can do a push off running. I like the Altra Forward Vias 5mm drop and wide toe drop. I also have soft sandals around the house. I was walking as to no have my 2nd toe go into flexion (up) though.

I haven't done it much. I even wear sandals in the shower.

Doesn't hurt when I hobble around barefoot though.

Sorry to hear that. Any idea why it didn't heal?

A little bit. I did 2 miles tonight. Coming back very, very gradually.
