RUN Tuesday with BE on track. Really light run to see how the heel(s) feel. Both, but especially the right one, have a dull pain where I envision the plantar tendon connects the heel bone. In my head, I wonder if there's tendon-bone connection issues. That's bilateral, so that's shoe or volume increase or terrain issue. These pains aren't there when I'm running, they are there after I've been sitting or if I move before I'm "stretched" and limbered.
There's also a pain in the heel bone of the right foot. Some googling found it could be a heel bone stress fracture or fracture. Or it could be a fat pad contusion. In either case, rest is required. One for 6-8 weeks and one for 3-4 weeks.
Define rest!? Should I be in a boot? Should I be doing even less walking? I'm considering new walking shoes, I've been wearing old running shoes. But when I wear my newer Adrenalines, it's better support but not so much less pain.
So what to do? I'm holding to my 10K per day steps goal, and just stressing out.
