Plantar Fasciitis and stomping on balls
I am going to the Dr next week. I have heel pain. I run. I took a lot of weeks off hoping it would go away and it did not. I am back to running and I am starting slowly and I will slowly increase the milage. I am crosstraining and stretching and all that. Foam roller = check. I have also been rolling my feet on a tennis…

Runners - I have a sneaker question...
Do you ever buy more than one pair of the same running shoe? I just used a new pair on my run today and they fit heavenly. I do not even have slippers this comfy. The support... the traction... oh my! So... it would be dumb for me to buy five more pair, right?

5 Hour Energy
Anyone ever have 5 Hour Energys? (The little red bottles with only 4 calories?) I know Red Bull is loaded with "stuff" that may or may not be good for me - and they are WAY too sweet for me. But these little bottles seem to be mostly B vitamins and some caffiene, etc. I stopped drinknig coffee b/c I add too many calories…
