I did a mini tempo run this morning, my foot was feeling okay so I tryed a 2 mile tempo run. I did a one mile warm up and then started the tempo. First split was 8:06, foot still feeling okay so I decided to do a marathon pace mile which was 7:40 after that I did a recovery mile just to be safe. Then I did another tempo mile for the forth mile but not quite as fast, 7:57 my foot felt pretty good so then I did a 3 mile cool down, total time was 1:10:54. My heart rate was a little high average rate was 155 I am still not feeling a 100% it maxed for the three mile tempo at 167 for that stretch. On the cool down it hovered around 145 which is still high, which tells me  I am still fighting an infection. I'm glad tomorrow is a recovery day and I can take it easy, no running.

Looks like your foot problem is something you can run through and eventually become injury resistant if you do it right. The key is patience and consistency.
