Stiff boots made mine way worse. Way better with the ultra cushioned Hoka trail shoes. I think the boot at night, calf stretches and strengthening, and insoles will really help.Ok, I've been doing the iced water bottle and my daughter bought me this roller which feels amazing.![]()
Been stretching before taking a step in the morning and whenever else I can. Make it point to never go barefoot.
I was feeling pretty good until I went and put the rest of my trail cameras out this weekend. Not sure if it's the uneven terrain or side hilling or what but damn it tore me up again. I switched to my stiffest pair of boots too.
Going to look at these recommend insoles and get some on the way.
I really appreciate everyone's input and I'd have never guessed it was such a wide spread problem.
I'm running 40-50 miles a week now training for an ultra with no symptoms.
