I know what you are saying, and I do not say that I am not giving it a chance to heal. I am going to do a post shortly on the way I have been rehabilitating the injury. In a small reply to your question, acute pain is rested and relieved. When you can walk without acute discomfort I have gone with the thought that you can not let the tear/injury repair in a understrength way. By specific stretching and strengthening without excessive loading I am working my injury back to a better place then it was before. Hi John,

Isnt it sort of like having any other injury and continuing to train through it? A broken arm, for example? If I had a broken arm, I wouldnt try to do any weight lifting in order to strengthen the arm muscles. I would rest it, stop weight lifting and give it a chance to heal. However, I'm not sure if that analogy applies to running barefoot while injured. What do you think?
