I've been sidetracked by the heat and a whirlwind change of events at work. The good news is that there's an end in sight for both, and they happen to be one and the same thing; I'm moving to Astoria in the next few weeks. So my goal is to find a place where I can easily access the beach and trails for continued running, and MAYBE to branch out into some crossfit training to strengthen these muscles that keep causing such pain with running.
