I've been experiencing a dull pain in my foot, above the arch, whenever I run more than 6 miles. I took some time off after my 50K, and the pain completely went away. Unfortunately, after some heavy downhill runs, the pain returned this weekend. I'm thinking I need to take a couple of weeks off and stick to spin bike to maintain fitness.

most likely an overuse injury. have you used any other treatment ie ice? pool workouts with running vest are great for recovery too!

I've been applying some ice, and I set up an appointment to have it looked at, but the earliest they could get me in is December 18th.
