Today's run was quite slow/easy & short, and I continued the strength work.

Food is on fire this evening at 3-4 bee stings - after ice, 2 advil and Salon Pas tape. :(

As in long-past incidents (mostly around tendonitis) I'm thinking the recommended strength work is exacerbating the daily-pain part of the issue - so tomorrow I'm going to skip that, and just do an easy run, and hopefully by the evening it'll calm back down.

The usual advice of don't-run, and do-strength both seem contrary to my experience.

Running orienteering races, hard and/or long wasn't nearly as bad as this past few days of some relativley light work and strength training. Even past interval sessions (in O' shoes) seemed fine.

Hoping that tomorrow's foot-strength training skip calms this back down. Not quite sure what I'll embark on next at that point, but if I can at least get back to a relativley light schedule of training, and some racing, at the ~1-bee-sting level I was at for much of the past few weeks, that'll be an improvement from the past few days :/

Today's run was much lower intensity, relatively easy walking, then jogging for about 10k over almost two hours. This was meant to emulate the summit successful Italy days which had a lot of walking and some races.

I also continued the strength training.. this morning was a workoutwith the band andstep drops, then after the runI did my regular set of strength training, nothing special for the foot

I did some hot cold buckets, a couple of hand stretches, couple of rolls and a piece of tape and my foot might even be slightly worse than yesterday. At this point I'm gonna call it two and a half bees things at the peak in the afternoon about two bee stings as I go to sleep.

My right foot was at a 2 bee stings this evening

Not sure if it's the intervals or the few days of strange training.

We'll take the running back to easy and continue the strength training to see which it is.
