Travis Barker On Bed Rest With Serious Injury
It was just a few weeks ago that Travis Baker revealed he was gearing up for his very first half marathon. Unfortunately, just one day ahead of the marathon, the Blink-182 drummer suffered a pretty rough leg injury. What exactly did he do to his leg? Furthermore, can Kourtney Kardashian’s husband still run in the marathon despite his injury? Keep reading for the details.
Travis Barker Injures Leg: Can He Still Run In The Marathon?
Taking to his Instagram Stories, Travis Barker shared a black and white photo of his leg. He had the upper portion of his leg wrapped up in a compression sleeve.
Travis added a caption explaining exactly what happened to his leg. He also shared whether he still had plans to run in the marathon tomorrow.
“I strained my iliopsoas tendon, but I’m still running this marathon.”
According to Your Online Practice Education, this tendon is located in Travis Barker’s hip. It is located in the front of his hip socket to be more specific. Furthermore, straining the tendon happens when it is overused in a repetitive motion. Unfortunately, this means he likely overused the tendon while he was preparing for the marathon.
Per the National Institutes Of Health, medical experts advise against walking or running after training this tendon. This recommendation is made to give the tendon time to properly heal. So, Travis’ decision to continue to run in the marathon could make his tendon worse.
Here’s the photo he posted of his leg injury:
How He’s Prepared For The Marathon
Kourtney Kardashian’s husband has posted a few updates on how he’s prepared for this marathon via social media. One of the biggest ways he has prepared is through his diet. He’s been bulking up on carbs to prepare for the big day. He took to social media to reveal that he would be eating a ton before the marathon to get ready.
In an Instagram Stories update, Travis Barker also shared what his favorite go-to snack was. Turns out, he enjoyed sinking his teeth into some bagels and cream cheese. See what he posted down below:
Unfortunately, fans were unable to voice their concerns about his decision to run despite his injuries as it was an Instagram Stories update. On other social media platforms, however, fans worry he’s just going to make his tendon worse with this decision.
