Living (and running) without custom foot orthotics for about 90 days now. In the big picture, this is hardly enough time to make a transition from 12 years of wearing them everyday.
However, it is a transition and so far so good.
i just need to remember that without orthotic support, strength will need to be developed and range of motion challenged and a new normal will emerge.
All of this takes time.
The itch to compete is strong; which means pushing yourself harder than normal.
Watched the US Indoor Track & Field Championships all weekend and then World Indoors is in 10 days, and the 2016 Rio Olympics is this Summer. So yeah, don’t overdo it jeff.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

A tiny buildup, on the left, can cause excruciating pain.
Ran 9.5 miles yesterday morning and then headed to podiatrist to have a tiny buildup removed from the ball of my foot. Because the pain only began a week ago, i took care of it before it affected running.

No pain from any joints. Pain is one digit up, but between the middle toes.
It’s one set back after another, just like in nature. Study nature long enough and you learn a brutal truth. Nature is survival of the fittest. Everything else gets eaten in due time.
The newest foot pain is driving him crazy because he knows exactly where it’s located, but there are no visible signs on the skin’s surface for him or his Podiatrist to see, and take action on.
