      I've had PF for well over 15 years (I'm 66 years old). I developed it while running marathons. I gave up running for long-distance hiking because it's less traumatic to the feet. However, my PF limited my hiking until I found the right podiatrist...

      I've just finished the walk about a week ago, and hope my experience/mistake can be of some help to future pilgrims. I spent a day or two in Madrid before and after walking the last 100 km to Santiago. The night before I started the walk, I...

      I tore my plantar fascia (partial tear) years ago. I use the FEETURES sleeve for my marathons and will take it with me for my Camino. Also once you finish your walk for the day roll out your arches with a lacrosse ball. If you have a Nalgene...

      I developed bilateral plantar fasciitis (and Achilles tendonitis) last year on the Norte. Outstandingly awful. I did the stretches and tennis ball, but I tell you, the thing that immediately helped me was switching to shoes (thank you, Connie)...

      Hello! I don’t know if this helps at all, but during my Camino I developed insane heel pain. It may not be PF, but I got a gel heel insert for my shoe, which seemed to help me knee pain as well, and it was like 95% of the pain instantly...

      dear Footslogger, I have had PF off, but more often on, over the last two years. I have read through the responses and many may be helpful. I have tried everything suggested. The thing I have found about PF (especially from prior rounds of...

      Since your pack seemed to affect it, I would send the pack ahead. And I’d get one of those small golf ball sized spikes balls and roll the bottom of your feet as often as you can, when stopping for breaks, in morning and night. You can also buy a...

      My first case of PF was on the Camino del Norte. I hobbled into Santiago then 6 months of physio and cortisone injections followed before I could walk Pain-free. Since then Ive walked a few very long Caminos always in HOKA shoes (BONDI or STINSON...
