I was out learning how to surf yesterday and a sting ray got my foot.  The initial sting did not hurt too bad, but about 5 minutes later the pain set in.  The instructor walked me to the lifeguard station and I sat there for 20 minutes soaking my foot in the hottest water they could give me.  When my daughter finished we both went back to our rental.  It took about 5 minutes to walk there and it was some pretty intense pain.  When we got there I soaked my foot for the next 2 hours in hot water and it made everything feel much better. I got up this morning and the foot felt good so I decided to run.  I could tell putting on my shoe there was some swelling, but nothing too bad.  I did a 4 mile run and everything felt as good as can be expected.  As I sit here now writing this, I am thinking running might not have been the best thing for me.  It's pretty swollen now and painful to move.  I'm hoping it will feel better tormorrow.  I was going to do my long run tomorrow, but I'm thinking that might be wishful thinking.  I'll play it by minute.  In the end though, it was totally worth it.  I really want to learn to surf and I loved every minute I was out learning and can't wait to do it again.
