Hi, if there is no deformity - it can be treated as you are doing with buddy strapping for 5 weeks. To do normal activities of running it might take upto 3 months. Some swelling will be there in the evenings upto 6 months. Consult ortho doctor

4 weeks for union.
8-10 weeks for consolidation.
You can remove the taping by 4-6 weeks depending on pain over fracture site.
