I have two kinds:<br><br>
When I'm running, after about 6-7 miles the bottoms of my feet start to hurt. I get callouses on the bottom of my foot kind of between my big toe and next toe. That's always where it's sore. This stops hurting after I stop running...<br><br>
But the one that's bothering me now is a pain on the ball of my foot, kind of in that area. It is sore to walk on it, and when I stretch my toes back (pull on them with my hand) it hurts. What the heck?

It could be your sesamoids...

thanks guys, that is what it sounds like. I'll take a couple days off, ride by bike instead. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

I have pain like that after long runs sometimes and the balls of my feet always hurt after I wear heels. I never really worried about it...maybe I should?

 

[wyrillco]

Probably not... it doesn't seem terribly serious. My foot feels better today. I'll probably run tomorrow.

Update, I took a couple days off of running and all is fine!

Were you running on the road? I dont have as many problems with it when I trail run my long runs...but that may be because I am distracted by the painful hills in all my trail runs. <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif">

You know, I did my two last long runs (10 miles and about 7) on sidewalks. That may have contributed to it! I much prefer trails...
