Pro  6520    Bellingham, WA |  Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2015.2 CLOSED (Poptarts? Pet pics?)Originally posted by Jet Black Originally posted by popsracer That's interesting on your foot. Have you done a bike fit? Did they mess with the cleats w/spacers to get your feet and legs set up right on the pedals? Might be worth checking that. On riding with power, I'm still waiting for a cheaper pedal based system. I am getting a little impatient but it sounds like some new things are just around the corner. I have several wheels that I use so don't want to commit to a hub based system. On another note, I think it is riding not running that was contributing to my recent foot pain. Seems really odd but it is when I get off my trainer that I feel those little twinges of PF type pain. When I stepped on a root several weeks ago that just inflamed what was becoming tender. I've been riding with Feetures PF sock for added support which seems to help but I am still getting a hot spot on my foot. Am puzzled?? My road bike shoe with a narrower toe box was much worse than my wider tri bike shoe. Do you think more padding would help like a gel insert? I refit every couple of years. I have a cyclocross bike with a different shoe and cleat system so I may see if I have similar issues with that setup. If not, I'll talk to my fitter specifically about this. I have a huge power imbalance due to nerve damage in one of my legs and it is the good leg that is causing me problems. I mash pretty hard on the trainer so might be putting disproportionately high stress on the good foot. I ride outdoors with higher cadence and less hard grinding so that might help too. |

Which race was this?  Got it. I didn't realize there was a full option. Yikes, I think going back down would be as painful or more so than going up and more dangerous. Yes! It's a pretty treacherous descent by the descriptions I've read. They do the Ascent on Saturday and the full on Sunday (1800 people vs 800 on the trail). |

Woo Hoo to both of you (Erin and TJ)!! Excitedly petrified sounds about right!! Guess I'd better make plans for where to be to help you most. Maybe around mile 5? Salty, did you get in? Erin, is J racing it too (either the half or full)? No word from her? J is doing the full "with" me. 1800 spots in the Ascent...they were reporting 6000 people "looking" at the race about 15min ago. lol |

But in the meantime my biopsy came back with like the precursor for Barrett's esophagus - basically there's some damage so to limit it I'm on 40mg Omeprezole a day now. SO - all in all certainly not horrible. I'm glad I got the endo - and I can look forward to another one in a year! (Best nap I had). Carry on........and keep up the good work all.

| Seattle | Subject: RE: Manatee Mentors 2015.2 CLOSED (Poptarts? Pet pics?) Been at the shareholder's meeting all day. Are any of you investors? The annual meeting is always really good and this one was no exception. This was the first year I volunteered and it was a really good experience. Most everyone was really great but one woman, while stomping her foot, told us to earn our keep and find her a seat. LOL On yeah, miraculously, with spotty 3G cell service in the shareholder meeting, I'm in for the ascent. |

I mash pretty hard on the trainer so might be putting disproportionately high stress on the good foot. I ride outdoors with higher cadence and less hard grinding so that might help too. Sounds similar in some ways to things I get at times too. For me it's through the joints where the toes attach. Not hot spots like blister formation, but it can hurt inside. It comes from the same observations you've had. More mashing direction, so higher force with longer application times brings it on more. I don't know how to get rid of it entirely but have had somethings help. I've avoided narrower shoes as well. Breaking up the rhythm at times helps some. The trainer might bring it more because people tend to make those rides more monotonous. It takes longer for this to show in a hilly Wisconsin ride even though I ride harder there vs a flat one in the more local area. Especially when doing something like going into the wind. At times I'll also consciously pick my feet up just slightly off the pedals in the recovery parts of the stroke. Then sometimes this just isn't enough and I'll stop, getting off the bike. Maybe take shoes off a bit and work the sore areas. As I understand PF, what you're feeling might be different, but some of these things can help relieve some of the pressure applied. Even if just a little. Definitely talk with the fitter to see if they have any other ideas too. |
