I went out for what was supposed to be a 14-mile run on Sunday, but after 7-8 miles, my heel started to hurt again. I eased up a bit, but after 8.5 miles, I decided to call it a day and rest it.

I haven’t run the whole week in the hopes that it gets better. It’s feeling fine the majority of the time, but sometimes I do notice some slight discomfort while walking. It’s not like it was during the week where I could barely walk, but I’m a bit paranoid and trying to decide when to try another run.

I’ve been doing a lot of elliptical work this week and I suspect that this may be slowing my recovery time. I didn’t do any yesterday and I’ll avoid doing any this weekend to see if that helps with my recovery.

As of today. my half-marathon on Dec 9th is a up in the air.
