If you are running with pain in the ball of the foot that seems like a stress fracture, it could be a plantar plate sprain. If you get a plantar plate sprain right before a race, the obvious question is whether or not you should do the event.



If you have a sprain of the plantar plate ligament, you may still be able to do your race. You just have to decide how bad the injury is, what your long-term goals are, and how badly you want to to participate in the event.



Today on the Doc On the Run Podcast, we're talking about whether or not you can race with a plantar plate sprain.
