Personal:

I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue. Love to run and be outside. I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible. Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

Went to the rec center early and did 40 mins on the spin bike - climbing workout then swam 14 laps

Later I took my son in the jogger, starting out I felt like I was pushing 100 pounds up a steep hill with the brakes on, man I was tired. But I felt better once I warmed up. Felt great runnning down the canyon.

Josse I couldn't remeber what injury you are coming out of but I started on Sat. with pain in my left arch. Thought it might be achilles stuff but what I have read is it's more painful in the heel? Do you have any info or experience with this?

When ever I get any pain in my feet I always start working it out and iceing, I use a massager ball that I got along time ago. It has 4 leg and is made out of wood. You can use a golf ball or baseball or even a can of soup. It is painful but you need to go as hard as you can stand it. It probably will be sore after you so this but that is normal. work on it at least twice a day untill you don't have any pain in your arch. You can also ice it before you work it out and it numbs it up so it doesn't hurt as bad. get on it ASAP.

If this doesn't make sence let me know and I can show you how to take care of this.

Thanks I'll get going on it! Hope it goes away quick! What do think the cause is?

It could be a couple of things, but probably your just not recovered from the marathon yet, when you get pains it could be a sign of over training. Or am imblance in your body. I just went to this sports chiropractor that finds your weaknesses and helps you fix them with differant exersices.

I wish I could take credit for the marathon, but that is the "fast" MichelleL. But someday I'd like to run one. These stupid little reminders that my body wouldn't are getting anyoying tho!

Sorry about the mix up but minus the marathon the other thing are probobly contributers. Just keep on it don't miss a day and I think it will be fine. If not let me know. Feet probems are a bummer if you let them get bad. Remember twice a day and more if you have time. The best medicine for any injury and I swear by this is cold/hot treatment. Start with 5-7 mins. of ice and then 5-7 mins of heat so this for as long as you have times for after you work on it. This may sound time consuming but it works, I have used it as well as many of my clients. You just have to be consistant. This is what I would do, while you are blogging or watching TV have your tool to work out your foot, do that for about 5 mins. Then get a big bowl of ice and a heat pad and go back and forth from one to the other.
