sore foot
Yay: I ran a half-marathon yesterday!
Boo: My right foot now hurts whenever something presses on the arch (e.g. wearing a shoe) or when I try to walk. Massaging the arch and stretching it have no discernible effect.
Question forrunners: do y'all have any advice on what might be causing this pain or how I can deal with it? Most importantly, if I ignore it and run through the pain for the first 10 minutes, will it go away and let me keep running?

You might need a more supportive shoe or insole for longer distances. You can strengthen your arches (if you still have any) to some degree with minimal/barefoot work on very short distances, but arches usually need support unless you have a lot of foot strength.
