What are you training for? Date? 24-hour swim relay - February 6-8th
Training plan for the week? Masters tomorrow, maybe cold water acclimatization swim on Saturday?
Any issues or vents? AF showed up on Sunday and so I couldn't go to masters yesterday (TMI - it was the heavy day so I wanted to avoid possible embarrassment.)
Highlights or AW's from the past week? My knee seems to be better, so hooray for that?
Issues/Vents - I've been dealing with PF since Feb. It was more or less under control. A few minor flare ups here and there that were frustrating but I could handle them with whining, stretching, etc. Well almost two weeks ago I had a flare up that made anything in the past look like peanuts. Went to my sports chiro, we worked through it, was doing all the things I'm supposed to do but I have a half in days and I really needed some more mileage. I tried a different pair of shoes on Saturday. I didn't do that many miles, things were ok. Something happened after mile five that just sent me over the edge and I was done. Went home did all of my things, ran a few errands, it hurt but it was getting better. Sunday I got up from the couch and tried to walk too fast, excoriating pain shot up my leg. The planta ----- tendon on my left foot swelled up. I already had an apt with my doc on Monday. Went to see him, he's worried. If he's worried I'm FREAKED OUT. I go back tomorrow. The swelling has gone down significantly so I'm hoping I don't need an MRI, he was worried I tore my tendon but with the improvement I don't think that's the case anymore. BUT WHAT AM I GOING TO DO ABOUT MY RACE?!?!? H has mentioned a few times since Saturday that I should stop running. I don't know what to do. Space Coast is going to be an utter wash if I can run it at all. I'm in a panic.

I'm so for you right now. This just suuuuucks. I hope it's just a tweak and everything is okay.

Hugs I hope it is just a tweak and you are better soon. Also you have 12 days, a lot can happen in 12 days. 12 days ago my hamstring, calves, and groin were hurting me and today I ran 3 physically painless miles on the treadmill.

Ugh I'm so sorry. I'm hoping for a miracle for you.
Can I hook you up with someone that's doing the challenger half as well so you at least have a buddy if you do it? She is a run/walk/run person and I'm sure would be more than happy to hang with you on the course and keep you entertained
That would be terrific. Several people from my team will be there, most doing the full but there's always room for one more and a running partner would be great.

DH and I will be there doing R/W and at the back of the pack. You're more than welcome to hang with us or at the very least I can give you a big hug.

that sounds lovely, maybe @vtcupcake's friend, you, your H and I can meet up at the start and at least start off together? I'm not sure what ill he able to do and I don't want anyone to hang back because of me but starting off together would be fun!
