Last night I went to the track to do the interval training after going to see my doctor. Btw, she confirmed that I have plantar fasciitis, so now is lining me up with either a podiatrist or an orthopedic specialist. Also, I now have a number of exercises and stretches to do every day to try to correct the plantar fasciitis. My time commitment towards this marathon has just increased. heh.
At the track, I informed coach Joe of my unfortunate diagnosis. He told me to take it easy, but I could probably still participate in the run that night, etc. I was supposed to run on the grass to decrease the impact on my plantar fascia (fancy name for part of the heel). I did 4 laps of the track and my warm up and cool down, so about 3 miles total last night. Then I went home and did my leg lifts/stretches/icing for my plantar fascia.
Today was a gym day, lifting weights and whatnot. Not very interesting to blog about.
Anyway I also wanted to share this today. My friend Hugo emailed it to me to show his support for my marathon training. I though it was neat, so I'm putting it on my blog.
Cheers!

Funny!
Sorry to hear about your ailment (don't want to attempt spelling it). I hope it gets better soon with a little attention.
I think I just need a new left leg entirely. that would help.
