Subject: pain above ankle
Hi everybody,

Saturday I rode my bike in bad winds and worked my butt off.  Sunday, when I got out of bed, I noticed I had pain on the outside of my lower leg,  just a few inches above the ankle.  The pain is on a tendon I think, and is very sore to the touch, and also hurts when I flex and point my foot.  I think it came from unclipping.  I had to unclip a lot on Saturday as there was a lot of traffic in my area, and it seemed like at every stop sign and yield I unclipped.  I usually only unclip this foot.  I may need to reduce the tension on the pedal as I do have a hard time unclipping.  Also my foot is very long and narrow, and my shoes are on the wide side, so when I twist around to unclip there is a lot of movement inside my shoe.  So what kind of injury is this?  I am supposed to run today, but not sure if I should.   Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks a bunch,
jami
