Common injuries for runners include Peroneal Tendonitis

Peroneal tendonitis presents as a pain down the outside of your calf and is aggravated by running. It can appear sore to touch and can give tenderness around the outside ankle bone when running your fingers over it. Causes can vary from over-pronated feet which increase the stress on the outside of the calf to something simple like running long distances on the same camber of the road. Think about changing sides of the road when you run. Itīs like running on the side of a hill which is unnatural for most of us and continual distance running of this nature will lead to this overuse syndrome and eventually prevent you from running.
