“They try to make me go to rehab…

And I’m like no, no no.”
I’m still recovering and taking things easy; which is driving me absolutely insane.  Walking on a treadmill, riding a stationary bike or hitting the elliptical and rowing machines is just not the same as getting out and running.
I went in last week and had some x-rays done on my foot to make sure there were no stress fractures.  It’s been a few weeks and I’m still facing a decent amount of pain in my right foot along with swelling and I wanted to make sure that if there were fractures I would not go out and do something stupid like start training again.  Everything came back just fine, although I have anterior tibial and peroneal tendinitis.  At least nothing is broken and I can understand what I’m up against. 
They recommended PT.  I’m good thanks; I can stretch and be in pain at home.  I don’t need to pay anyone for the privilege to be in pain.
It’s killing me not to even test it and see if I can run, but I know that taking some time off is the smart thing to do.  Jan 1 can not get here soon enough…
