I took a huge step back in my mileage after my March half and April 10 miler and then stopped running altogether in mid-September. My feet needed a break, badly. My plantar fasciitis/heel spur/Achilles have been nagging issues since summer 2015 early into my Dublin marathon training. I was in such euphoria after the marathon that I really didn’t take much of a break and clearly I paid for it.
This year I’m going to focus on short mileage – 5Ks mostly and my 1 mile time. I think pushing hard for a short period of time will be better than moderate push for an extended period when it comes to my feet. Clearly I’m going to start things off slow and build up strength and stamina, because I’m pretty sure I couldn’t even run a non-stop mile at the moment, but that’s okay.
