Still dealing with plantar fasciitis. I have gotten rid of the tightness in my calves and I feel like I am getting some relief. After a run it feels like the progress I've made is gone.
I don't want to stop running to fix the feet. I tried the frozen water bottle and the relief is temporary. Maybe keeping it up would help. Any home remedies that don't include not-running?
I am going to roll a tennis ball under my feet while enjoying a chianti.

The Purpose
First - I am not qualified to give advice and anything I post here is purely of a recreational nature or for my amusement only.
I purchased an activity tracker around March of 2014. In an effort to increase and sustain my activity levels I started walking, then what I call shuffling, however I am now a runner. It's just beginning, It is now summer here, the hot, humid days haven't hid hard yet and I have yet to face the challenges of running during the great Canadian winters.
If you are reading this I would love to hear about your experiences getting started.
I am currently running 4km, three times a week. I am okay with the distance and I am trying to maintain a pace of about 7 1/2 minutes per km.
Sounds achievable, however, I am also dealing with Plantar Fasciitis and very tight calves. It is a bit discouraging. I bought tennis balls to massage the bottom of my feet. I am trying to stretch before, after and at random times throughout the day.
