What a great day! So I went to see my chiropractor today (have I mentioned that she is also a runner, ran in college, for U of MN, and runs marathon, including Boston) and she looked at my foot, touched all areas that would indicate PF and in her opinion it is NOT PF. There are tons of muscles and things there and most likely it was, like I have been saying it feels like, a bruise. She said to keep icing it and take it easy….after I told her that I was taking myself off rest, she was fine with that. She did berate me a tiny bit for the heels I was wearing (but agreed they were cute) and I promised to stay off heels for a while, even this weekend when out, so it’s given more rest. Anyway, I did have them do massage and ultrasound on it too, so hopefully that all help make it better.
Also, big congrats to my friends Andy and Hugh who ran the Boston Marathon today. They both had huge PRs…hills agree with them apparently and both had times that qualify them for Boston again next year (maybe they can be convinced to come with me next year) and Andy finished only 8 minutes or so behind Lance Armstrong, without speed work and went under 3 hours for the first time.
And to make things even cooler…we are in the middle of our first thunderstorm of the year!! I love thunderstorms…and nothing like rain (and 70 degree temps) to clean up and make things green.
I’ll try to update more tomorrow night. I’m traveling for work this week out east, work things on Wednesday and Thursday and then visiting a friend over the weekend…had I been smart I would’ve gone out the weekend BEFORE and watched the marathon yesterday…so dumb somedays!!

So glad it is not PF! Hope the massage helps!
Love summer rain too...mostly b/c it is quick and refreshing!
Have great trips!
Take Care!
I'm so glad to hear that it's probably just a bruise! What a relief!
I love thunderstorms, too. We don't get them very often. By the way - did you say 70 degrees? I guess Minnesota jumped ahead of us in the race for spring. Enjoy! :)
I think you gave me your boo boos.
Thunderstorms can be really fun to watch I agree.
Hope your foot is better, happy travels!
Glad that your heel feels better.
Glad to hear it is not PF! have a good weekend and a safe trip.
