Flinstone feet is not the correct term, but it's probably an acurate description. After I get my spring pedicure, I might be brave enough to post a pic, but until, just take my word for it.
Two trips to return shoes at fleet feet and I am still in pain in my right foot.
I ran 5, ok, limped and dragged, 5 miles last saturday b/c my right foot is hurting soooo bad after about 2.5 miles. It hurts on the balls of the foot when I come down and moves into the arch until it hurts so bad to put the foot on the ground. I guess i wasn't ultimately made to run very far or marathons, but I am so commited to accomplishing this goal that I know I will perservere.
the doctor is probably next on the docket, but until it hurts a little more so i actually pick up the phone, i have self diagnosed myself and an working though the pain.
i figured i have flat feet and no arch and the ball of my foot is taking the brunt of the weight as i come down. i got a foot pad that works for a bit and i decided to tape up my arch so i have gotten through this week of 5 on sat, 4 on tues and 3 today. now I have to get through this sat of 6.
i guess i am wondering if i will push it to the 10 mile and then go to the doc to see what i should really be doing about it or if i will be typical nikki and try and tough it out.
i wish i knew the answer.
