Adam, I feel...Julie, thanks for your encouragement.<br />Adam, I feel the same way re: orthotics. I used to wear OTC inserts (Superfeet) and ditched them late last year w/no negative effects. I'm going to do everything to NOT wear any, if possible. And...the calcium deposits on my butt have nothing to do with my heel issue. At least, I don't think so.<br />Brandon, I'll probably never become a true barefoot runner, but doing some of it in my back yard to strengthen my feet isn't a bad idea. I do have high arches, so I don't have as much natural spring in my step, so I've been told.Colin Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17748487053513730467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630191868059143398.post-53090035056778375732010-06-05T09:48:06.659-07:002010-06-05T09:48:06.659-07:00I feel like custom orthotics are ALWAYS mentioned....I feel like custom orthotics are ALWAYS mentioned.

Or, you could hope you insurance covers custom orthotics for the rest of your running life. <br /><br />Prayers for you bud.<br /><br />BWBrandon Woodhttp://ironbrandon.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630191868059143398.post-44977466094422129742010-06-04T13:13:10.316-07:002010-06-04T13:13:10.316-07:00Hi Colin,

However, this sounds like a valuable opportunity to address some issues that may otherwise plague you in the long run. My father-in-law likes to refer to such situations as a "temporary inconvenience." He is a wise man. (To clarify though, he did inform me, when my wife was delivering my first son, that having a baby was not, in fact, a "temporary inconvenience").<br /><br />Have you been hiding something from us, like wearing pumps around the house? Anyway, good luck and I hope some good fixes come out of this situation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630191868059143398.post-63901996024147047642010-06-03T20:32:19.702-07:002010-06-03T20:32:19.702-07:00Tony, trust me...I desperately want to run.

I will massage it & do the other treatments. I figure the less I aggravate it, the sooner the swelling & pain will go away and the sooner I can get back out to run.Colin Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17748487053513730467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630191868059143398.post-79450966490913416062010-06-03T20:25:31.114-07:002010-06-03T20:25:31.114-07:00Colin, I don't have dog in this fight but I th...Colin, I don't have dog in this fight but I think you are wise to trust the professional. <br /><br />Inflammation won't go down with stretching and certainly won't go down with running more.

You may not be able to stretch it using traditional methods but you can massage it/(kneed it) to loosen it up. These are "generally" caused by lack of or incorrect stretching combined with fast running (read: speed work).Tony Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17006754089850914184noreply@blogger.com
