AM - cross training to keep from having impact to the left foot. Cycling 50 miles. Rode down to St. Pete early where Delaney had a soccer game. Watched her game (she scored a goal) and rode back home almost entirely on the Pinellas trail. Good at keeping the HR locked into a moderate aerobic effort - legs have been unfamiliar with cycling for quite some time. So I expect to be sore and tired from the ride.

Wise move to rest the foot. Just be careful with the bike - plantarflexion and dorsiflexion of the foot might aggravate other ligaments and tendons in the area, as well as any tendons or ligaments that might be stressed/injured. But if everything feels ok, then the bikes great, as you said. Hope it's all ok.

Thanks Bam - I was careful/wary of anything that would tend to aggravate the situation - but it felt fine on the bike. Sore all over from riding of course.
