Bad things happen...

So I felt some discomfort in my right ankle and foot for a little while, but it wasn't really bad or anything, and I could still run a sub 7:00/mile without any problem. I didn't really pay attention to that, cause it almost looked like it's going away. I kept on training, running and biking. Then on Tuesday at the TNT track workout, it felt like the discomfort morphed into a slight pain of the tibial bone and tibiofibular ligaments. It only hurt when pressed with a finger, so I finished the track workout, with no visible problems. Then the next morning I woke up, and couldn't walk without pain in my ankle...
I called for appointment with a specialist, but that won't happen until Friday 7/20, so I have a little time to try to nurse this, and hope to get it better. For now, I'm really having to sit and wait, all at the time when I should be running weekly about 22-26 miles. I hope this is nothing serious, and it will go away quickly, cause I'm signed up for Wharf to Wharf, and then I need my feet to get me through the finish line in Portland on Oct. 7!!!
