Thanks for all the advice! I do have tendinitis on the top of the right foot (certainly holds me back a bit).
All that stuff about tires in this thread, and you're probably fine in that regard!
So you have extensor tendonitis? You might want to talk to a doctor about your footwear in general, and your bike footwear and pedals in particular.
Are you riding flat, clipless, or toe-clip pedals? I have no idea if that makes a difference for tendonitis, but it sounds like something worth checking out. I know that type of tendonitis is usually related to footwear, but I'm not a doctor and I don't play one on Bike Forums.
