sorry I haven't blogged in a while. I am fighting PF in my right foot and metastarsalgia in my left foot to the point I can barely walk at times. I don't know how I developed either of these problems, I have never had problems with the soles of my feet before. So I  haven't been running much and have been experimenting with different shoes to see what will get me back on track. Meanwhile I have had a great summer with lots of camping traveling, reading books, home projects. I should feel bad I haven't run more, but I really don't. And with the injuries there isn't much I can do about that anyway. the miles for today are really a compilation of about all I have managed for the last 3.5 weeks with all my troubles. My goal now is to get my feet healthy, no races for awhile. I will try to put in about 4 miles a day this next week and see what happens. I am going to try running them in my hoka bondis to give me some more cushioning and see if that helps. they are actually a very cool shoe.

6 in the nike free runs. and the PF problem in right foot was aggravated. So no more nike free runs for me. I will stick with the hoka bondi B as it seems I was making progress when I stuck to those. all my troubles started while running in the free runs, though I had been using them for higher mileage than now in the past. oh well.

back to the hoka bondis. and my PF feels better already. these are really good shoes for the feet.  How they will affect my shin and posteriar tibial tendon remains to be seen.
