So went for a 3 mile run two days ago and my foot is killing me. It especially hurts when I get out of bed in the morning. Thoughts and help much appreciated.

Look up plantars fasciitis.
It sounds like your Achilles' tendon is inflamed. I am suffering through the same thing right now.
Prevention is to do a full round of stretches after a run.
Follow the RICE recovery plan and don't cheat yourself. That will only slow recovery.

Before you step out of bed in the morning indulge in a little foot stretching to make that first step tolerable.
For pain relief try Voltaren jel.1 -
Definitely sounds like PF although it's wise to check with your doctor. Rolling your foot on a frozen bottle helps, but in addition to that and PF exercises was Oofos sandals. Expensive but life changing in terms of preventing the pain.0
