Dreams of injuries past memories. I've had that as well and I have to say of all the kooky socks, rockers, straps, balls, rollers, balms, ointments, and other items that fall closer to snake oil, they try to sell you three things actually worked. 1. Sleeping on your back, or if you must sleep on you stomach with your feet off the bed pointed downward. 2. Ice, ice that darn foot, it's easy you just step on it, no ace bandage required. 3. And if you can a Strassburg sock, loved that thing. Looks dopey, feels odd, but keeps your foot from curling in overnight. Nothing like stepping out of bed what feels like shards of glass. The sock can help that. BTW, It's nice to know someone other than my mother reads this...No offense Mom. Ah plantar fascitis… Dreams of injuries past memories.

BUT I think sometimes we overlook that we still did a huge thing! Finished a freakin marathon. 26.2 miles is LONG. Congrats on pulling through and just finishing. Sometimes the races that we suffer the most we learn the most from. You will do great next year. Good luck. Jenny Noel,

And Happy Birthday to you as well, and it does get faster, and faster, and faster with every passing year. In striking contrast to what I fear may happen to my race pace. Noel Thanks!

You'll be back and better than ever next year. I can't wait to train with you for your next Ironman adventure. Just beware, I'll be living my "non-Ironman" year through you now, so it's on. Sorry I'm out this weekend, I am going to be my bro's water caddy on his long run. Glad to hear you're back!! Thanks Noel! You’ll be back and better than ever next year.

I'm sorry this is still an issue. Cool images though, but still not worth it. Also, I just read your race report from Galena. That was pretty good writing. Dude, WTF?
