......, I found that by stretching my toes towards my knee whenever I was sitting with my leg up, reading the paper, a book, or watching TV, really made the difference. Chris

Ray, thanks for the info on the orthotics...something to consider for sure. I used to wear superfeet (the green ones) but once I got the PF they made my foot feel worse, not better.
At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.
This may be a very naive, post from a newbie who has not knowledge whatsoever about running, except the love of running ...what does one do to prevent this monster called PF?

I'm not sure it can be prevented. Good shoes, even the ones that you don't wear for running would help. However, if you look at spareribs who seems to do everything right, its still impacted him. I guess regular stretching and icing of the foot may help as may arch supports.
Thanks Ray. I don't know what any one can do to prevent PF
