I mean, based on what I ve read, theoretically should be possible, but it is pointless. You wouldnt be at 100% (to sprint, to tackle, to jump), and you run the risk of being injured ..

If I'm able to just run and kick the ball that will be ok. I just do it as some cardio.

Yeah, obviously a good recovery will let you play sports. You just might not be as good as you used to.

This depends on a couple of factors. How much do you wish to lengthen and what is the original length of the segment you wish to lengthen.

Generally speaking once you cross over 20% of original bone length you will have some problems returning to sport.
