Hey injuries, leave me alone!

I have plantar fasciitis. Doctor taped my foot and prescribed medication. I have a splint to wear to bed now. If everything goes as planned, I will be healed in about a week. I can continue to run and cross train, which is great. I'm just not allowed to run super long distances, like my 18 mile run this Sunday, or wear flip flops or any other flat shoes.

Also, next week he will be making me orthotics (shoe inserts that mold to my feet) to help with ankle, knee and back pain. Thank goodness, because I'm starting to feel like an 80 year old woman with arthritis.

So, the good news is that the marathon is still on! Yay!
