May was a year that I first started experiencing pain, but it's not a year since I was diagnosed - took 4 doctors to figure out what was wrong, plus an MRI, and that will be a year in December.

The initial doctor told me that "I'm not getting any younger" and not to train 6 days a week anymore - I was used to three days a week doing weights, interspersed with cycling, and one day off a week. He felt that "at my age" I should spin only twice a week, do weights twice a week, take another day a week off, and do pilates or similar on the last day.

I listened to him for a while, after my plantar plate tear was healed, of course. Now, I'm back to doing whatever I want. Sometimes my foot aches but I don't get real pain like I used to. Of course, sometimes it aches even on a weekend when I'm Netflixing and chilling too.
