Well W3R3 completed last night but was struggle with last run. My feet are really painful this morning. I have Plantar Fasciitis so caught in catch 22 as need to lose weight to treat it. Have started doing some of the runs in the gym.Does anyone else just use a treadmill to do all their runs?

Have plantar fasciitis as well. I find doing the exercises given to me by my doctor before and after each run help. Also now have some super swanky trainers from a specialist running shop that really support my feet.

Feet are still sore afterwards, but much better.

I run outside.
