So I'm still trying to get to 10k from graduating last Christmas and had a few set backs but now feeling stronger and wanting another go!
I managed 6k last Friday at a reasonable pace and didn't really notice anything wrong with my foot, but then went for a 5k walk afterwards. Whilst I was walking, I noticed my left foot felt sore on the top under the laces, and I had to keep loosening my laces.
I iced it that night, and it's still niggling a few days later. I'm going to attempt another shorter run on Wednesday but now wondering whether that's a good idea?
Any similar experiences? I wondered if I'd had my running shoes on laced up too tight?!

It's hard to say until you try the running shoes with the laces a bit looser, it might be all that needs done.
Try some stretches on it, sit on a chair rest sore foot on opposite leg, cup the top of your sore foot with your hand close to the toes, gently bend the toes downward, hold for 20 seconds x 3.
