I am feeling more like a cyclist these days then a runner....certainly haven't been able to put any mileage in since earlier in the year. I guess my main goal this year is to get rid of the very painful heelspur that has been plaguing me and prevented me from consistently running:
Goal #1: Healing the painful heelspur on my left foot.
Goal #2: Participating in the Vancouver New Years Day Fat Ass - custom 10km course
Goal # 4: Participating in at least the following other events/races:
-
Capilano Canyon MardiGras Night Run
-
Mountain Highway Madness
-
XTC 25K
-
Bill's Great Peak Ascent
-
Capilano Canyon Midsummer Nite Night Run
-
Go Deep or Go Home
-
Sunshine in September
-
Go Deep
-
M&M's
-
Pure Satisfaction
Goal # 5: 5 peaks in the Peak Bagger Challenge
Goal # 6: ride my bike to work - weather permitting (I've been averaging 3.5 per week rain or shine and am hoping to keep that up.
Goal #7: start going to the gym again at least 1x/week for core and upper body work
Goal # 8: get on a more consistence stretching program and become more flexible - easily reach toes!
Goal #9: Add some other sports to the mix occasionally, ie. Badminton, kayaking, Ultimate. Realistically, I won't have time to add this into a weekly routine, but doing something different every once in a while would be nice.

Heel spur ... OUCH!
Ouch and Hell Spur is about
Ouch and Hell Spur is about right. The thing is extremely painful.
I did some research and have started to agressively use direct ice and pressure (with the ice) to break the monster up. Seeing some results and less pain. Where did you go to for the radial shockwave therapy? Might need to up the ante...
