Winning the Battle

5 days since my foot started rebelling with some serious Plantar Fasciitis pain on the medial calcaneous...I was actually able to get out today for an hour "run". It was easy, yet thrilling to get back on the road. I did a minor test on it with stride work on the field yesterday. This went well, likely due to the the more forefoot striking. Today, I used new shoes (NB 769 - a bit stiffer than my usual runners), my soft orthotics and went out for a run with the purpose of no expectations. I felt it a bit on the descents, however, it is MUCH improved since Tuesday. I look forward to building up my mileage again.
Lesson: get on those injuries fast and seek expert advice!!
Happy Training :)
