He has several methods to help with the problem, will shorten your stride, and make you less susceptible to injury.

I'm sure the shoe heel theory does work, but it can't be the one fix.

Wow!<br />8mm drop is still quite a bit, in my experience and top of the foot pain seems to be quite typical for many who transition from a regular to more minimalist shoe (or barefoot). Glad you found something that is working for you. <br />Happy running.Ewahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17005438284707424779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-892506252169617105.post-31797801799721496072012-01-05T08:31:45.704-05:002012-01-05T08:31:45.704-05:00Wow!
