Didn't run again today. Instead I took Abby to swim practice at the Fairmont Pool and Ann and I fed the ducks and walked around the park with Andy. Actually Andy did most of the duck feeding. There were already some ducklets.

I did some stretching while Andy played in the sand with a boy he met at the park.

Might go for a walk later although even walking hurts my foot.

What part of your foot hurts?

Jake - I have Plantar Fasciitis in my right foot. Remember when we were running a couple weeks ago and I told you about my bruised heel? Nope. PF.

It's the main reason I ran so poorly at Boston, not the heat. The heel was screaming the whole way.

yuck, PF is annoying. I had it all last winter. It sucks.

Sorry Rob - that's inspiring to finish Boston with that. I would be stoked just to finish with an injury like that. I hope the recovery goes well and you'll be in my prayers.
