The Next Step

Huntsville, AL:  I traveled to Huntsville yesterday and still had some pain in the foot so skipped the run yesterday.  I didn't want to over do it today since the foot has been acting up.  It felt pretty good today but caused me a few problems toward the end.  Took it easy the whole way.

Huntsville, AL:  The foot felt better today so went a little longer.  It started bothering my around 4.5 miles so cut it off at 5 to keep from causing more problems.  I will try to go a little further tomorrow to see how it does.  Just ran pretty easy the whole way around 8:15 pace.

Huntsville, AL:  Ran on the TM at the hotel because I wasn't sure how my foot would react.  The plan today was to just run until it started bothering my and then quit.  I just took it easy and the achilles started to bother me around 3.5 miles so I stopped at 4 miles.  It is starting to get pretty frustrating with my foot.  It has been a tough couple of months and hope that I can get over this problem.  At this point I am not sure what to do about it.  I have considered taking off for an extending period of time and just cross training to see if that will take care of it.  I am not quite ready to give up on running with it yet so will see how it goes for the next week or so then reevaluate it.
