complete rest.  I took today off since the PF in my right foot flared up and I'm trying to nip it in the butt before it becomes an issue that prevents me from running. I began doing some strengthening exercises on the stairs and it already feels 80% better than yesterday.

PM: 5 easy + mile barefoot run and stretching

PF feels a lot better but I can't figure out why it flared up in the first place except for completely treating my body like shit and not taking care of myself directly after the marathon. no stretching, drinking, and eating like shit for a few days after a severe shock (marathon) made me inflexible and susceptible to injury. Same thing happened when I came back last December. The next time I take a break, I need to keep taking care of myself. I'm not 20 anymore.
