i fractured a bone in my foot while running a marathon, but I had sprained that foot three weeks earlier and was on crutches for three weeks. I am a experienced marathon runner and so my question is y did I injure my foot again when it had healed after the sprain?

    You did not indicate if you reinjured the same area. If so, then I can only suggest that the area was not as healed as you thought. Also when a part has been immobilized, it takes some time to get it back into pre-injured shape.
