As someone who is back from 6 weeks off due to peroneal tendonitis, I know it is hard. Plus, with an injury, you lose the innocence of running injury free and you now pay attention to any little niggle or soreness. <br /><br />As far as runs go, I like the 10 minute test. Go out for 10 minutes and see how it feels. If you don't feel right after 10 minutes, you're still close enough to just walk home. If you do, you're probably good. I do agree with Lisa up there about trying to find out WHY you are injured and not just taking rest days. Rest isn't a bad thing, but if you go back to what you were doing without any changes, the injury and issues can just come back.Amy Lauren Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02565049872858950707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1720427310581652580.post-86342943373914054862017-04-24T09:04:36.785-05:002017-04-24T09:04:36.785-05:00Oh Gina.
