    Over the weekend I did a long run, and at the end I noticed that the bottom outside of my shoe hurt (didn't really feel it a lot until I finished running and took my shoe off). It hurts right around here:

    I think it might be peroneal tendonitis, so I've been rolling out a lot and icing which seems to help. I tried running on it and it seems like I can still do longer runs, it just hurts to turn a bit but the pain is not too bad, kind of like a bruise.

    The area is inflamed though, but I can walk on it and don't actually feel it very much when I walk. It will occasionally randomly hurt a bit more but not enough to prevent me from walking, and I can run on it.

    Has anyone ever run through an injury like this?

    Mine gets irritated every so often and I've always been able to run through it. It is possible to have a more serious injury that you can't run through. So be careful.

    Yeah it's more like a bruise now, though it is inflamed. It does hurt/get irritated occasionally but I can walk on it no problem and when I run it I feel it occasionally - but it's not super painful, just a small irritation every now and then.

    I'm going to try to keep icing and see if I can keep running on it.. if it gets really bad I'll take some time off (I did take a day off that helped).

    A stress fracture of the 5th metatarsal can also occur in that area

    Is there some way to tell if it's a stress fracture?

    I can't really feel any bone there. Also the fact that I can still run on it and it's not a sharp pain might mean it's okay?

    At this point I think there might be a bit of a blister around there which would be good, if it's a blister and not tendonitis/stress fracture.
