I was awfully sore yesterday, but , after a good night's rest, I am only moderately sore today. Mostly the outside (lateral) right calf and ankle. These aren't new pains. The podiatrist said I need more lateral support, which the orthotics should provide.
What's going to be tough is that the orthotics arrive this week, and I don't have another really long run before the race. Next Saturday's run is 12 miles, so that's going to be my best opportunity to see if I can tolerate the orthotic. The Dr. said I may not have allowed enough time to acclimate to the orthotic, and may have to race without it. My bad, for waiting so long to see the Dr.
