1. You have to bend your toes up towards you (stand on your tippy toes)
Or push them back with the palm of you hand. You have to force the ligament attached to your big toe to stretch.

I know it hurts. Keep it stretched for a while because those arch cramps are a bitch to relax.

2. Worse than that

When your toes are splayed apart and won't retract and you have a Charlie horse on top of that! Meh, hate that!

3. I had mild plantar fascitis about ten years ago
Did something to my foot during a road march during a Guard drill. Hurt like holy hell for a few weeks.
