After I busted my ankle 26 miles into my 43 mile race in Patagonia, I had to do about 6 months of rehab. I hated it. Rehab is fine when you're with a physical therapist and they're running you through the various exercises, but when you're at home with your foam roller, it's a bit more like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6w0jakILepk Even after I got healthy, and wasn't hurt, but just had aches from sitting down all day, I knew I should do ...
