Foot update - starting to run...

Went to the foot doctor a couple of weeks ago to get my PRP treatment.  I told him my foot was feeling pretty good - of course, I hadn't been running and it should be feeling good.  He suggested that instead of the PRP, I should try to start running again.  So I started...
on the treadmill,
Day 1: 1/4 mile walk, 1/4 jog, 1/4 walk
Day 3: 1/4 mile walk, 1/4 mile at 9 min pace, 1/4 mile at 8 min pace, 1/4 mile at 7:30 pace, 1/4 mile walk
Day 5 1 hour on eliptical, then to the treadmill... 1/4 mile at 9 min pace, 1/4 mile at 8 min pace, 1/4 mile walk, 1/2 mile at 7:30 pace, 1/4, mile walk
Day 7: 1/4mile walk, 1/4 at 9 min pace, 1/4 mile at 8 min pace, 1/2 mile at 7:30 pace, 1/4 milew walk
Day 10: Track workout - packed limestone track: 1/4 mle walk, 1/2 mile slow jog, stretech, 1 mile at 7 min pace, 1/2 mile walk, 1/2 mile in 3:10, walk 1/2 mile
Day 13: Back to treadmile: 1/4 mile walk, 1/4 mile at 8 min pace, 1/2 mile at 7:30 pace,1/4 mile at 7:20 pace, 1/4 mile at 7:10 pace, 1/4 mile at 7 min pace, 1/2 mile walk

whew - that's a lot to type.  My foot is a little sore today, 2nd day after the last workout.  Trying to decide if I should run again today.

My legs are tired too.

I have also been swimming and riding.
