Running Mommy-- I must admit that I am paying for it. I have found some relief from the pain by using this small green ball to massage the bottom of my foot and the calf muscle.

Brina--Good luck with your tri too. I was thinking of doing that one as well, but I'll be in North Dakota celebrating my Dad's 80th birthday that weekend.

Thanks for all of the kind words everyone. I've got some photos that I will attach as soon as I figure out how to post them.
