Arch of foot injury

Chris Truman

I've just had my first DNF

I was running an off road marathon and about 14 miles in started to experience pain in my left foot  - once I'd bailed (fearing Id do more damage) I discovered the arch of my left foot was swollen (with a little swollen bump). I iced and elevated and its not as sore now.  I'm curious as to what I've done and what the collective thoughts are on how long to rest.  Any ideas?

Little swollen bump sounds like plantar fibroma.  Won't go away on its own.  Look into it and consult a doctor if the symptoms fit.
