Barefoot and happy
"You can't have everything. Where would you put it?" - Steven Wright
Thanks. Taping seems to be a good idea. I think I'm going to try taping, ice, and ibuprophen, along with some shoe inserts for better arch support. Lots of stretching too. I still can't do the barefoot thing though. That will need to wait until the initial pain goes away. I rode the bike a few days ago, but that just takes so much more time. This is very frustrating!

I really appreciate all the advice. This appears to be more of a long-term problem, which adds to the frustration.
Everything I've read says barefoot is bad when it comes to PF...
Many people do say that. But I think they're wrong. In places where people don't wear shoes, they don't get PF. How do you think your hunter-gatherer ancestors got by without orthotics?
