Would you believe it - four days out from a 100k run, and an injury flairs up.
I have got a sore foot - and to this point, it is self diagnosed as Morton's Neuroma. Not sure if that is the real problem, my Physio (the South Korean Acupuncturist) thinks it might be a stress fracture, but it definitely feels like I am running on marbles.
This blog is a reminder to everyone to keep yourself rested, and get your injuries looked at. I haven't in this case, as it was at Easter time, playing touch footy on a beach that I first hurt my foot. I thought nothing of it, and all these weeks later, it has not cleared up. In four days, I will be on it for 24 hours, and in a world of hurt, I am guessing. Anyway, no whinging, just doing, so after the run, I will get it looked at.

See you on the other side.
Oh, by the way, 10k this morning, 8k tomorrow morning, and that is it. Thursday and Friday will be rest days, to recover, and prepare.
Living the dream.
