Pretty much doing them all including some stuff for my calves and shins which seem to be extra tight lately. I've read that this can actually be a factor in foot pain. Interesting how the body works.<br /><br />It looks like I am going to be altering my taper plan and taking most if not all of the weekend off. I am actually going to be in NY this weekend for a last minute trip. Sort of gives me no choice but to put in extra rest time.<br /><br />I'm definitely getting the taper-time jitters. I can feel the fitness leaving my body even as my feet start to feel better. As for crew, no I'm not planning one. However, I am going to make a drop bag which I've never done before.Steve Ansellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107967737535707878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28605766.post-52519103360544752832006-09-27T18:47:00.000-07:002006-09-27T18:47:00.000-07:00I have had plantar on and off for months. the exer...I have had plantar on and off for months. the exercise that I find helps me the most if standing on the edge of a curb (ledge, step, etc) and putting weight on one foot at a time to get that oh-so-nice calf stretch. <br /><br />I like your taper plan. I did an hour this morning ( Wed), plan on the same for Thursday, skipping Friday and probably an hour or hour 1/2 or so on Saturday. After that, I like your idea, especially the 3 days off before the race. That seems to be the magic number for me for letting my body recharge. <br /><br />Yay, I'm getting nervous but excited. Are you going to have any crew with you?Mikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17918637899747648399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28605766.post-44969921733903981502006-09-27T11:21:00.000-07:002006-09-27T11:21:00.000-07:00I've had Plantar Faciitis crop up a few times on m...I've had Plantar Faciitis crop up a few times on me.
