So I went from 175 to 255 pounds over the last two years after losing several relatives including my father. I had planned to ease back into shape, but after seeing the 20th anniversary medal for the marathon, I realized I HAVE to have it.
I have terribly flat, wide feet to begin with, and finding supportive shoes has always posed difficulty. I have been fitted for running shoes within the past 4 months, and I've broken these new shoes in fairly well.
I went for my first training "moving forward" (I don't dare call this pace running!) yesterday, and about a mile into the 3 mile workout, it felt like my soles were on fire from the inside out. They were tight (I had stretched after my warm-up) and incredibly painful. I limped off the track and stretched out. The pain was mostly right in the middle of the bottom of my foot- not heel or ball pain.
I'm seeing a podiatrist Friday for what I believe is a bunion, as well as a few ingrown toenails. I plan on bringing up this pain, but just wondering if anyone else has ever dealt with it.
