I was stubborn back then was told I would need surgery or I would never run again, and the surgery was no guarantee I would run again so I put it off, and not long after started to run and ended up doing a few marathons and triathlons so it was all good, now I feel the aches and pains but I have done pretty well I think :)

Broken feet can take a while to heal, I have broken both of mine a few times, the worst one was when a truck ran over it, I didnt even know they were broken most of the times I thought it was a strain or whatever and taped it up myself, I only found out for sure they were broken about 5 Years ago when I had feet issues and they did xrays on both feet, the funny thing is the foot I call my good foot, just about every bone in it has been broken at some stage been broken, but they healed fairly well so I must have taped them up well

Lets just say I was crazy when I was younger
