Today was day three of the running club and I am still alive (but not completely well). All this running has made the bottoms of my feet hurt; I think that is the “pad” of your foot. Or is that the “ball” everyone’s always talking about? If I walk barefoot in my house it’s really noticeable. I’m not sure if it’s the rocky terrain or just the amount of running… my running shoes are really nice, though. In fact, it’s only when put my shiny leather shoes back on when I notice the tenderness. I’ve had those shoes for almost two years now so maybe I need to upgrade.
I’ve been running with a group of guys who run too fast, but today I ran with a guy who was a bit too slow. I noticed that the pace is everything! I was able to run longer without getting tired when I was with this guy. The hills are still big, and at this rate I’m wondering if running/walking eight kilometers up and down a mountain is helping me to run in the Nairobi marathon in October. Speaking of that, I told my buddies I would do ten kilometers and they laughed at me. HAHAHAHA. I will do ten kilometers and if they don’t like that then TOUGH LUCK!
Matthew has been having the same pain since he started jogging!
I had that pain once and it got so bad I went to the Dr. and he said it was, “fibular sesamoiditis” which in lay terms is the swelling or something of one (of two) of your sesamoid bones (the bones in the ball of your foot) the dr. told me to take an anti inflammatory and pad that foot, and he gave me these little dense foam pads. Feel betta!
yeah ….10km poa tu,mimi bado siwezi kukimbia niko down tu sana lol
