Foot Problem

Gentlemen, I have been Rucking religiously for a few weeks now, varying the distances from a minimum of 2.5 miles, up to 8 miles and gradually increasing the weight. I started out with 30 lbs, and now Im up to 45 lbs, with about 7 weeks left untill I ship. I think the problem comes from the fact that I have been mainly wearing sneakers and marching on pavement. I'm trying to break the 15 minute barrier consistantly. I do have boots (DSCP Issue desert boots) that I am trying to break in, and got a nice set of blisters from them (hardening up nicely though). I think that the boots will help cure the problem, but I'm afraid I might have done some damage.

The Problem: I have a sharp, shooting pain along the top of my left foot, directly behind my big toe, all the way to, but not including, my ankle. I have full range of motion with my foot with no pain, except when I place weight on it.

I'm taking 2 days off to see if it goes away on its own, but I thought Maybe some of you might have some insight on it.

I am also using Superfeet insoles in everything, and green Army boot socks when I march.
