Hopefully as you run it will loosen up a little. I think I've read that most heel pain is really related to the arches - maybe using a tennis ball on them will help, but I dunno. I know as I get older, little injuries seem to stay with me longer - hopefully this thing passes quickly for you!Jim ... 50after40https://www.blogger.com/profile/14165153305680378261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-46490274068876013202011-10-26T09:19:15.158-07:002011-10-26T09:19:15.158-07:00I'm continually impressed by your running acco...I'm continually impressed by your running accomplishments. It's amazing to me that on your own you've put together such a great string of consecutive runs and with amazing mileage. Looks like you're staying in tune with your body and thanks for your motivation :)Rose (Hacker Half Marathon)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01554370616892305395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-83530110561476719882011-10-26T08:08:45.338-07:002011-10-26T08:08:45.338-07:00L.B.

I have found that KT Tape offers me a lot of help and there are lots of video on you tube that show how to apply it for different injuries. I am actually kind of addicted to the stuff. I also keep a tennis ball in my office and roll my foot back and forth on it. It directly helps my plantar tendon, but makes my heel feel a lot better as well.<br /><br />I read somewhere in Runner's World or Trail Runner that most foot and heel problems are the result of weak glutes and hamstrings. I hope this is useful info for you. Heel pain sucks!Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01665891188430152894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155167444174882391.post-8392259522742744042011-10-26T08:06:32.562-07:002011-10-26T08:06:32.562-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01665891188430152894noreply@blogger.com
