My foot was better today but I thought I would give it some more rest so I rode the bike for 45 minutes and around 14 miles.  It was a pretty good workout and I felt good.  I am not sure what to do about the foot but it gets better after resting a few days then when I run about 3 days in a row it hurts again.  It doesn't seem like I can get back to normal running without causing problems.  I am going to try a cross training routine and see if I can build back up that way.  I guess the bike ride is equal to around 5 miles running.

Philly:  Traveled up to Philly today.  I did 30 minutes on the bike then did some core work.  The foot is better today but I am going to be conservative with it to see if I can finally get this thing healed.

Philly, PA: I thought I would try to run some on the hotel TM today to see how the foot was feeling.  I started off and it was hurting so I just stopped and did the ellipitcal for about 45 minutes.  I did some core work after as well.  Not bad but would rather be running.

Philly:  I thought I would try to run on the foot again today and see how it went.  I started off easy and didn't have any pain.  I decided to run until I felt the first sign of pain and then stop.  I made it 2 miles and it started to bother me some so I shut it down then moved to the elliptical for another 25 minutes. It is frustrating but will have to work on other things to stay in shape until I can get this foot fixed.
