Hey fellow runners. I usually try to run 8-10 miles a week, usually in 2 - 2 1/2 mile increments. Id been doing this for the last year and never had a problem. But the last 2 weeks ive gotten pains in my feet and in the last week ive got serious aches in my left heel of foot. Worst in the mornings. Ive only been able to run twice this week, and its gotten worse. Ive spoken with a long distance worker I work with and she said its probably Planter Fascitis and i should see a doctor.

Has anyone experienced this before? Whats the recover period and treatment? Ive looked online, but want to see if anyone had a real account of the injury. Thanks
