I really really really hope I can do this run!

Hmmmmmm....... my little footsie is not very happy:((( Unfortunately all this running seems to be aggravating my foot! Hopefully a week rest ( just cycling and maybe swimming) might help. I joined a running forum and the advice from there is to do short runs more often to build up fitness base and that if I can do 14km - then the 21km on race day won't really be taxing. I think that's right. In the past I've trained for the run for kids ( 15) and haven't really gone past 12km. On the day it's always easier to do that bit more.

The foot problem could actually stem from your calf muscles. Stretch everything.
What Deb said. And if it doesn't improve in a few days, go see a sports physician for a proper diagnosis.
You don't want to risk developing a serious problem and putting yourself out of action for weeks.
good luck and i hope your feetsies get better!
Deb- I'm sure you;re right- as everything hinges on something else! I do stretch regularly and always after running. It's the plantar faciitis just letting me know it's still around. I'll give it a rest and see how it responds
Kek- I know what it is and I also know that running aint good for it! I won't do the half if it doesn't improve- don't want to travel that path again- took me 4 years before to get it to the place where I can run on it- as long as I don't over do it!
raquel- thankyou:))))) I hope so too
