Part of the reason I have been shying away from races is on going PF issues with my feet and pain in my right ankle. Obviously, the pain is not enough of a factor to keep me off my routine as I have recovered my race pace and much of the distance (ran 33 1/3 miles on the previous week, starting with a 15 miler). I actually set my unofficial half marathon PR (1:43:49) during a similar 15 miler back in August. I should even cross the YTD 1,000 mile mark before Thanksgiving.
Now that the PF issues affect both of my feet, I am starting to get a little more proactive in dealing with it. This week I started using SOLE Signature DK Response footbeds in my Kayano 15's. The size 11 inserts perfectly fit the size 11 Kayanos.

I am also trying a ball more suited to the purpose rather than an old tennis ball. Hopefully, the combination of approaches will keep the PF at bay. Again...the pain I am experiencing is not debilitating in the least. I just don't want my running routine to suffer now that I am back up to speed.
