Evulsion/Avulsion Fracture

I have been diagnosed with an evulsion fracture in my left big toe (side of foot, really) after a triathlon last Friday (6 days ago)!!! I have no idea how I managed to do this -- felt nothing other than the usual torment during the triathlon itself. The doctor said i must have somehow bent the foot wrong, and the ligament pulled the bone.

6 days later i can now walk nearly normally.

The question is -- what kind of activity is okay? The doctor said no running for 6 weeks!!! But that everything else that doesn't hurt is fine. I usually bike for transportation but have not been back on the bike yet.

Does anyone have experience with this?
