Sports Tape

Well, there's nothing more annoying than struggling with an injury, for months, only to find a relatively simple therapy that seems to make it go away.  After struggling with heel pain since late July, I decided to try taping the back of my heel, and, wonder of wonders, the inflammation seems to be going down, the pain at the Achilles insertion seems to be going away.  Who knew??  I'm quite hopeful that this will finally work.  That's the good news.  The bad news, of course, is that I'm creaky, slow, and out of running shape.  The other bad news is that it's too late to get back on course for the Philadelphia Marathon, so for the rest of the Fall, I think I'm just running for giggles.  Oh well.
