my balls hurt

i overpronate. got new running shoes.
am forming small bunions. got new everyday shoes.

but now, my balls hurt. it's a new pain. well actually not so new, but before not related to running. after my long runs, be it on the treadmill or outside, i have a soreness in the balls of my feet, akin to when i used to dance all night in high heeled shoes. except that now when i dance all night, i take my shoes off. so it's not the dancing.

when i used to get this pain during non-running related activities, i didn't think anything of it. now that it IS running related, of course it freaks me out. i want a name for my condition and i want a remedy. preferably something cheap, easy, and fast. rest usually makes it better, but we're talking days of rest here. the next day my balls are oh so tender and walking really is painful. if i try to run within 2 days, the pain just persists.

the most logical thing i can think of is that i need more cushioning. but i don't wanna go messin' with all that crap down in my shoe for fear of it taking everything out of alignment. and with my half in just 2 weeks, i'm scared to try anything new. i'm already going to be starting my period the day of my race, i don't need to add shoe experiments to exacerbate the situation.

maybe i can suck it up for now, knowing i'll be tapering soon anyway. i'll keep my balls nice and fresh and once i'm done with my race hobble to the running store to ask their advice. but if any of y'all have any advice, i'm open. perhaps i should revisit my good ol' friend, ice. she's always been good to me in the past.
