    Missed most of XC this year with tendonitis. Had a mediocre indoor season because I hadn’t run in the fall, but had a decent couple of races at the end. Really looking forward to outdoor, working hard at my training, and feeling great. Yesterday, my little brother asked for a piggyback ride. About 10 minutes into hauling him around (he’s probably 50 lbs), I feel this sudden stabbing pain in my foot. Today, I can’t even bear weight. Did I really just mess up my outdoor season because of a *%#*+£¥ piggyback ride?!?!??

    Just do a bunch of easy jogging (preferably on a nice smooth grassy field) until you are recovered.

    Uh...no. Do not run on that. If you can't walk on it you should not run. You should never run when injured or so sore that your stride is affected (i.e. don't run until there is no change to your stride). You could possibly shuffle as that is an entirely different motion, but I don't know what the point of that is other than active recovery.

    And P.S. Easy Jogging is an ahole for even suggesting that when you say yourself you can't even bear weight on that foot.

    Rule of thumb: sudden onset pain outta nowhere tends to go away quicker. Where in the foot? If it's outside, could be a cuboid subluxation. I wouldn't freak out just yet. Give it a day or two and it'll probably settle down.
