Hello! Thank you for all the suggestions on my ankle pain. After a lot of research I think it’s my Anterior Tibial Tendon that’s tight. I am not sure if it’s full on tendonitis yet, but yeah it’s definitely still hurting a bit today so I’m not running.
I found this graphic that shows perfect where it hurts on my ankle (it doesn’t hurt on my toe).

Running Tip: If you need running advice just do whatever RunEmz says. She knows her stuff.
So, on Instagram she said I should rub it with peppermint oil and I knew I had to do it (even if she was just messing with me because she wants me to smell like a candy cane).
Actually I mentioned it to Ben and he bought peppermint oil on the way home and rubbed my ankle after dinner. I need to find a way to trick him into staying here forever (or at least until my ankle heals?).
He also picked up Indian food for dinner. This guy is on a roll! He must have an agenda…
Earlier in the day I sported ProCompression and iced my ankle. I just threw away the frozen peas I always use to ice my knees yesterday – worst timing! So I used frozen fruit and patriotic socks. It works.
I also hit up Jamba Juice because I feel like it has magical healing powers (or at least makes me happy which is good for my soul if not for my ankle).
The night before last I grabbed my foam roller out of no where and asked, “Is this how it feels to be a guy? It would be the worst to run with something between your legs…”
“*laughing* I’m taking a picture of you,” Ben.
And I realized this picture sums up my entire life…

Messy hair
Running medals
