WOuld find it very difficult to believe he did a seroius g3 lame job with
the eq sneakers on.. a real shrp tall stone MAY have wedged in to the hole..
but I always knew it was there in 2 to 3 strides..

if you dont see a cut frog.. dont see how it could be in the foot..
is he flat soled?

just maybe all the pounding at bankhead flexed the alumimmun plate some to
cause sole tenderness.. does not explain the blamm lame..

nope --my guess its in the suspension.. soft tissue..
try this.. ice your hands get them very cold.. use alcholo and ice on his
legs ..get then cold too.. wait about a minute or two.. ice your hands
again.. then go over both legs very slow and 'feel' for a hot spot.. go
slow a number of times.

i can find very slight heat points this way..

the good parts stay cold longer.. the hot sport -- re-heat the cold
surface..

is he still lame?
does he point his toe? would indiacte sole brusing.. or wall hit from a
rock

vienice turpintine old time fix for sore feet.. used by many NATRC riders
to toughen the sole and frog.. since they cant use pads.. and want to go with
' a natural' foot..

one that has a man-made callus --go figure.

best wild guess on my part.

hope he gets well.. and you find out what went wrong..
