W5 D2: A Bit Of Pain

Today the plan was to run 6 miles.  However, my left foot is troubling me a bit.  Just underneath that bone that sticks out midway on your foot, on the big toe side, it is tender to the touch and hurts when I bear weight.  I think it is the tendon or ligament under there, it feels funny too.  I can feel something moving around a bit when I press, not a bone though.  So, I decided to err on the side of caution since I'm planning to run a half this weekend.  It hurt yesterday as well, during the end of the run and after.  I brushed it off as kinks, but since it's the only thing area that is still bothering me, it gets a little more attention.

I scheduled a doctor's appointment about it. I wish I could just go to a specialist, but with my insurance we have to go to the primary first and then get a referral if he or she deems it fit.  It's not that I don't think my doctor knows what he's doing, but I think a specialist might have a better idea of what's going on.
