Rowing vs. Running

My peroneal tendon has flared up under my ankle, making it pretty painful to run on. What's the consensus on replacing the run with rowing. Or is there a better suggestion?

Deep water running is the preferred replacement what I've read/heard!

x2 on deep water rowing...you will still have some stress on that tendon when rowing. There are some resources on this in the run section of the wiki.

I suggest you also check out www.athletestreatingathletes.com and see what else you can do to help the area!

Rest up it's the OS get yourself fixed cause the training is coming and you want to be at 100 percent so don't push it IMLP right on?

Ran four miles outdoors this morning with no pain. Back in the game!
