My right foot.....

Last year about 3 weeks before the 3Day walk I broke a bone in my foot. At the time I did not know this (never broken a bone before) and so I continued to train daily. About a 5 days before walk I was exeriencing the same pain so that Monday I went to the doctor after falling down the steps.
The xrays did not show a fracture so I was ordered to wear my orthotics, but could not due to my swelling feet. I walked! I did 60 miles! After the event I followed up and afer 3 months (and a bonescan) I was told a possible break in my foot. I was put on a Cam walker (Dec. 18, 2008).
Well Wednesday I got the clearance to discontinue the boot! So I can start some moderate walking. I will be taking it easy for about 6 weeks.
