Damn - there she is below on the left, the baddest woman on the planet - Marathon World Record holder Paula Radcliffe who yesterday confirmed she has been forced to withdraw from next month's London Marathon because of a toe tendon injury. A freaking toe - damn! She picked up the right toe injury while
altitude training at her base in Albuquerque, New Mexico and in mid-February returned to Europe for specialist treatment. "I am desperately disappointed that I have to pull out of this year's race. I love running in London and this race would have been the perfect test for me before the Olympic Games," she said. "But in marathon training there are no short cuts and there is simply not enough time to be in the shape I want to be in to run well in London". Tell me about it - you can't half-ass this marathon game - not even in your training. Keep in mind
this is a woman who recovered from pregnancy and birthing a child t0 within the same year win the NYC Marahton - and a damn toe's taken her out of would be about $500,000 payday between the Race & Sponsors. Now I don't know the exact nature of this "toe tendon" injury however if I was a professional runner?....I'd be sleeping in Toe Stretchers (YogaToes) to strengthen my toes/tendons. That's a pair on the right - They're made of a special gel material that is fitted into the spaces between your toes to help open up your circulatory system, they exercise and condition your feet, and with daily use you will notice an improvement in the shape and strength of your feet - they're used for an array of foot complications...and per the claim they're used for foot pain, poor circulation, and other serious conditions such as: Bunions Hammer Toe Sciatica Arches Plantar Fascia Achilles Tendon Varicose Veins Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) Foot Pain Upon initial use you will feel a tense stretch, but this is a good stretch. The longer you can wear a pair - the more limber your toes will become. You can buy these at Amazon, you'll see them on Ebay, you're looking at $25-$40 or so for a pair. If you're very serious about your marathoning - you gotta have a pair. I'm feeling pretty good - going to clock about 7 strong this gorgeous morning in Central Park - New York City! Have a great day!
