Running while Hurt

Here's a link to an interesting article sent to me by my mentor, Joe:

I'm applying the advice to my heel. It doesn't hurt any worse when I run than it does otherwise, so I keep running. Sounds like these doctors support that decision! I'm going to try the ibuprofin and ice advice to see if they help.

Joe is a triathlete, part-time university professor, CIO, and expert in my field (IT). He is very personable, smart, generous with advice, and kind. He doesn't really know that he's my mentor, but I'm pretty sure he knows I idolize him. Either that or he thinks I'm some freaky stalker.
