Very briefly, a marathoner-friendly podiatrist, Dr. Ray Mollica in Cobble Hill (PR 3:10, New York City Marathon), carved me an cushiony insole, which he said would work better than the Brooks Defyance paper-thin ones (who knew?) and should provide relief for my forefoot pain, and showed me a basket-weave taping for my the "trauma" spot, as he called it, on the lateral band of my right foot. Alas, though, no PAINKILLERS :(
And now on to Scranton. Thanks so much for all your good wishes. And to my Canadian friends and family, Happy Thanksgiving!
