This was a really special race for me, because my fiance ran it with me. We've ran the same races, but never together (he's not even a runner). Since I'm nursing a foot injury (whoopie my foot felt... read more

Well too many late nights and allergies kept me from getting any runs in this week. Luckily the dog keeps me on two one-mile walks each day so we maintain some semblance of sanity.

its definitely a balance and sometimes being so exhausted and still going out for a run. I work in event planning so sometimes I work 40+ others its 70+, but running keeps me calm, even if it means running at 11pm at night!

After taking nearly 2 weeks off from running to heal my foot, I got some new shoes and took the opportunity to break them in! This was a combination of brisk walking, sprinting up the hills, and ru... read more

Thanks guys! The foot is feeling way better too! I think I'm going to try the 5k this weekend and see how it goes... But I'm going to keep doing this too.... It sure feels good to do core work! Shirley, I know! I had to hold my head up after a while with my arm!

Great job! Don't feel bad. Took me like 30 mins just to change out my tires yesterday. How's the foot feel? Any pain should manifest within 24 hours.

Thanks Leo! And I've been meaning to thank you for the bike advice too! I gotta save up, but I think end of summer I'll follow your lead, and get a better bike! It's just barely sore on top, I think I only notice because I'm paying so much attention to it. Going to take it easy still, and maybe run the firecracker 5k this weekend if it doesn't get any worse. I have to really wiggle my foot to feel anything, and even then it's just barely sore where it had hurt.

My foot is still sore. It just feels like someone is squeezing it. I've been icing it. It doesn't hurt anymore, but when I step on it I can feel where it is sore... I'm guessing I probably shouldn'... read more

yikes-I have been having ankle and foot issues for a while now. My arch is tightening up and it does feel squeezed. i am taking a few days off and I have orthotics now. A half marathon is still a long ways to go-I would rest it today and tomorrow and see about Sunday.

Rest the foot, it's better to let it heal than turning it into a sever injury.

Give it a couple of days and no intense work outs for a while. Trust me, the top of the foot is not the place to be hurting.

Hate footie problems! My right one has been bothering me for over a week....I can't tell if it's heel (like Achilles) or ankle or in between.... I've been icing, now alternating with heat, and taking pain medication occasionally. The rest is just being patient for the healing process!
