The Promise of Fall
by Pat Price, Writing About Running
Ever since my 2:55 at the 2010 Boston Marathon (eat your heart out,Paul Ryan), I’ve writhed in agony from injury to injury.
It started as a severe hamstring strain. That led to chronic shin splints. Then Piriformis Syndrome. Which led to the most painful of them all: Plantar Fasciitis.
I couldn’t write. I couldn’t run. The pain in my foot was so bad I wasn’t even paying attention to the Diamond League schedule.
