What are you wearing on your feet?

[Lucyintheskywith Graduate in reply to IannodaTruffe]

Trainers purchased from a reputable recommended running / sports shop that did a gait analyse for me.

[IannodaTruffe Mentor in reply to Lucyintheskywith]

Sounds as if it could be plantar fascitis, so might be worth doing a search for that to see if the symptoms match yours.

[Lucyintheskywith Graduate in reply to IannodaTruffe]

Yep...they do and i know that's an issue for me well b4 9 weeks ago.. this is different. Or at least feels as though it is..

[IannodaTruffe Mentor in reply to Lucyintheskywith]

If you have had pf in the past then the stresses of running may well be causing it to change the way it exhibits symptoms and only a medical professional is going to be able to give you a firm diagnosis and appropriate treatment regime.

Sounds like you need better trainers. I changed to asics, expensive but so worth it!

[Lucyintheskywith Graduate in reply to Rosetta123]

Make sure you land on ball of foot each step. Take some anti inflammation meds for a couple of days. Could be your tendon under your foot.

New trainers definitely worth the money, I spent more on mine than I've ever spent on shoes.... I am returning to this after 2 years and 3 stress fractures in one foot. The other thing I did was space the runs out a bit more. 1 run, 2 rest days. Tales a bit longer but certainly helped the aching foot. This was physio advice who said running is fine if your sensible, running is easier than sensible for me.

[Lucyintheskywith Graduate in reply to Tippyrunn]

Yes.. re: trainers..I've done that already 9weeks ago same as u.

I was getting aches in my heels and knee. Went and got new running shoes with a gait fit no problem since.

[Lucyintheskywith Graduate in reply to billiboy12]
