LM warmup, 1.5 miles total.

Foot felt okay before the run but 1/4 mile in was killing me.  Stopped and started the walk of shame back to the house.  About a dozen steps later and it felt fine.  Turned around and got another 1/4 mile before walking back to the house with some lingering pain this time.  Headed down to the chiro, who examined it, did a minor manipulation, then tried a tape job to support the cuboid.  This worked to an extent.....the pain on essentially resolved on that spot and I got about 1/2 mile into a run before the PF started hurting in the center of the foot towards the heel.  A tad over 1 mile total with bearable but not great pain levels.

A work trip over the next couple of days was going to curtail my running anyway, so taking the next 2 days off isn't a stretch.  I seriously hope I don't need more because Boston is looming and I'm not anywhere close to race shape.  Unfortunately, I have a sinking feeling that its going to take more than a few days to get this fixed.

Dang. I hate sinking feelings. Hope you get pleasantly surprised in a couple days.
