    I got plantar fasciitis last November so I’m really looking forward to and dreading it all the same. My mile time is shot though

      That sounds not fun at all. I really enjoy running but gave up on it after too many injuries, never got to 10k. It’s an awesome milestone, hope you manage to complete it safely!

      Is this 10k you getting back into running after the fasciitis, or getting into running for the first time?

      Either way, good luck! Hope it goes well!

      I was training for a marathon when I crashed in a bike race, 4 months before the marathon. And then had to take a month off of running, getting back into it 3 months out. Certainly not ideal, but good to have a goal to help with the motivation coming back from injury.

        It’s getting me back into running, but it’ll still be my first 10k race. Hope the marathon went well!

          Whoops…cleaning up old tabs and realised I never replied to this. Good luck with your training and with the race! Have you got a target time?
