The tic I found was in March, after a warm winter/early spring.
My toe/foot is better today. Not all better, but after coming home from spin early this morning and getting ready for work, I iced it for the 3d time in about 16 hours. Then, when I walked out the door, I realized I was not walking funny and I don't feel so much pain. I even walked to another building across the street, about 1/4 mile, to buy my lunch.
I am cancelling the group hike, but not because of the foot. We had to reschedule our theatre night to a Sunday matinee, and that was the day of the hike. Now I don't feel so stressed. If it is really better, I can hike that Saturday, but right now, I am focusing on riding.
