Planter fasciitis: he plantar fascia is a sturdy structure but the degree of stress that it takes makes it susceptible to injury. A force equal to almost three times the body's weight passes through the foot with each step. On running, this typically happens about 90 times a minute.Plantar fasciitis is thought to be a traction and overuse injury. http://patient.info/doctor/plantar-fasciitis-pro
