Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar Fasciitis. After researching the Internet, that's what I think I have. I have the most common symptom - pain on the sole of the feet specially on the first steps in the morning after waking up.

I really hope it goes away really soon although from the stuff that I read on the Internet, Plantar Fasciitis takes months and even years to heal. Yikes!

What probably caused it? Of all the probable causes that I've read, the most likely causes for me are - I'm overweight and I overtrained. I'm now thinking that I shouldn't have changed my training plan from the more conservative Couch-to-5K to the more aggressive 0-30 Minutes in a Month.

I just hope it goes away soon.

It didn't change this year. My waistline didn't change too. I thought that after training for and finishing a marathon, I would at least have a normal BMI. Oh well. I still have plantar fasciitis and for the first time I have a dead toenail (on my big toe; from my marathon). About my running gear: I retired my Mizuno Wave Elixir and Nike LunarGlide, and replaced them with the New Balance 870 and Nike LunarGlide 2. I bought 2 new Nike running shorts, 2 New Balance c...

Brand Diversity

When I got back from a run this evening, I noticed I was wearing an Adidas cap, an Apple Nike watch, a Reebok shirt, New Balance shorts, Saucony socks, and Hoka shoes. Brands were well represented.
