Feet ache and hearing loss

Today I mid a mid-distance run of 7+ miles. My feet were killing me, I am sure it was due to the long run yesterday combined with the numbness. It was a pretty good run and despite the discomfort I did it pretty quickly (8.37 minute mile) for me. I think tomorrow I will just do a short one and take it easy. That will give me a good total going into the weekend as I won't be running on Thurs or Fri. I might pull out the ice packs and just rest my feet on them as I work.

So another thing I have been dealing with has been a slight loss of hearing. It has really been going on for a number of years. Part of me attributes it to wearing headphones so much, even though the makers of the inner-ear models claim they are totally safe, actually even safer as you need a lower volume. I don't know about that, my ears have hurt after wearing them at times. I am going to do more research on this and see what I come up with.
