Easy run ont he trail as coach didn't want us doing the hill workout after the race.  Probably wise as wanted to see how my foot was doing.  I'd put my foot in a small pot hole during the race.  It hurt for a second, but then was fine.  Started hurting that evening until I could barely walk.  However, took some ibuprofen and then it was fien the next morning.  All a bit strange really.

What kind of foot pain do you have?

It was a sharp pain whenever I'd put weigth on my foot. I thinks its because I was wearing my vibram fivefingers so when I hit the pothole my foot twisted instead of my ankle.

That's too bad. I hope it heals soon.

I often develop pain across the top of my foot, so I was wondering if maybe you had the same thing.
