AM - got about 100m past 8.5 on mural and felt a strain in the arch of my left foot when i landed on it(plantar fasciitis?). stopped and walked around for a minute but it still felt a little sore so i called it there; no reason in risking making it worse. i'm not all that worried; i parked a couple blocks away so i could do some strides and drills beforehand on the turf field, and was able to jog a bit going back to my car feeling relatively fine. 6:01 pace for the ~8.5 which is pretty annoying considering the last 4.5 miles were hovering in the 5:53-5:58 pace range. why couldn't my foot have started hurting like 10 minutes later so i could at least have the victory of it being 5-minute pace? whatever
