I felt optimistic after my chiropractor session. The pain from the plantar fasciitis didn't magically disappear, but things felt different, like I'm finally healing. Also, I figured out that if I train in my trail running shoes I barely feel any pain in my foot, so by doing so I was able to run the volume I was aiming for over five sessions this week. The ultra I'm doing next month is on trails anyway, so it makes sense to get used to running in them.
This coming week I'll run a similar volume while also thinking about a fueling plan for the race. A local experienced ultra-runner offered to support me in that, and I'm excited to learn from her!
