Went for a run around the neighborhood tonight. I was going to go to the gym, but why do the treadmill when you can run outside! So I went around the loop in the hood and my freakin' good foot started to hurt. Now the loop has a downhill and obviously an uphill...not a lot of flat. I stopped and did some stretching trying to stretch out the arch in my foot and my calf. Please oh please do not let it be plantar fasciitis! I had that last year in the other foot and it was horrible! So I did two miles and then stopped at the house and picked up Riley and ran 2 more miles on some flat areas in the apartment complex next door. The foot felt much better on the flat surface. So I am hoping that stretching it a few times a day will help. I have been noticing that my calf has been really tight lately,so I am guessing that didn't help the foot either.
On another note my pictures came back from Cherry Blossom. I finally sucked it up and just bought the lot of them on a cd. What a freakin' racket that is! The shipping and handling was over 10 dollars! Really you just burn the stupid pictures to a cd and mail them..not that hard. Heck you could just email them to me and save postage too...but oh well, chalk it up to memories.
Here are some of the pictures:

Great pics!!!
My foot has been hurting too. It's gotten better but i'm afraid it's pf too :(
Great pics! Hope the foot pain goes away - maybe try rolling on a tennis ball?
Great pix! I always look angry and like a man in my race pix. I never seem to see the camera in time to smile and wave!
Sorry about the foot pain :(
Robin this is the first time I don't look like I am in pain. I have this horrible look on my face like I am running towards my death in all of my photos..these were the first ones that were half way decent.
Hi Pam! I saw your comment on Miss Zippy's blog and was intrigued since I am a "running librarian" too (in my case a public librarian :^) ). Your race pics are good--I always look like I'm going to die in mine.
