A few weeks ago I posted about shin splint pain that developed as I started a running program for the first time. Tennis Tom and a few others urged me to keep going. I just wanted to update a little.
Yes, I think I was stressed out about the race itself and lots of old feelings were coming up about that....who ever that was...genius! I had not realized that, but it was so true.
2nd...TT...you are like Dr Sarno's voice in my head. I vividly remember him yelling...yes gruffly yelling at me, that there was nothing wrong with me, and that I could run a marathon if I wanted to! Exact words. So all of your posts remind me of him, and that keeps me going, so I honestly thank you.
I have kept going. I started running outside a few weeks ago and ran 3 1/2 miles yesterday and felt great. It is a huge accomplishment for me. I hurt afterwards and still today, but sore....not TMS. And my shin splints are almost gone. I am so happy that I did not give up. Maybe one day I will run that marathon...just for me and Dr S! |

CONGRATULATIONS! And thanks for the feedback M2T. Those who "Just Do It! and follow the Good Doctor's words, get your transformative results. Dr. Sarno is a genius and I have no doubt he will get a Noble Prize someday. I'd never heard of a "stress fracture" until relatively recently and the term is half right--"stress" is the problem--the current medical/industrial thinking is what is "fractured". "Stress fractures" and other newly coined dis-eases, are a handy cop-out for the docs to put a structural label onto what is probably TMS. Such stuff usually can't be seen on imaging or if it is, is a normal structural anomaly.
I'm sure if you want to do a marathon you can, first do a 5K, then a 10K and then a half and then the whole 26.2--"start slowly--then taper off", (Walt Stack)--let's be sensible after-all.
Cheers,
