Plantar fasciitis

I'm gutted I've been diagnosed as having plantar fasciitis. The doctor told me not to stop the C25K but go back a few weeks and build up even more slowly.

Any advice or top tips from any PF sufferers?

Oh no- you have my sympathy. A friend of mine has it and she massages her foot using a golf ball. I hope you can get it sorted.

I’m not sure what that is, I am sorry it will impact your running journey. Xx follow the doctors advice, and be kind to yourself too.
