I would go see a podiatrist, ASAP. I was having the same problems as you did last year. I did all of the stretching, ice, anti-inflammitories, etc. Nothing helped me. I kept on going (getting my arches taped every night) and it kept getting worse. By the time the season was over and I got to the Dr., my feet hurt all day every day. The Dr. made me some custom orthotics and we did all kinds of things to try and relieve the pain. Nothing helped me. I finally had to have surgery on my feet during the summer. Not a fun experience, but (knock on wood) I am continuing to improve and my feet are getting better. All of the other advice is good and good shoes are important (I wore Cons last year, but not this year), but if your feet continue to hurt, I would get in to a good podiatrist now.
Good luck with your feet.
