Notes

I didn't know if I would get through this run. I left the house concerned about the left foot. But that really wasn't the problem. It didn't bother me much until the last 1.5 miles. (However it is very sore now as I type this hours later.)

The problem was the right foot as I had the sharp pain again at 2.75 miles. I stopped and turned back as I didn't want to be too far away if I had to walk it in. I stopped twice more in the next half mile due to the pain and seriously doubted if I should run.

I decided to give it one more try, ready to bail out and walk if the pain returned. But miraculously I was able to run the 18 miles with only a couple of slight niggles the rest of the way!

I kept the pace easy as I want to recover from this and race the 5K handicap on Thursday. I may take a couple of days off to the feet some recovery time. I will see how I feel tomorrow and make my decision at the time.

I am psyched I got this run in! :-)
