![]() | ![]() Mojo11 - 2010-02-02 8:12 PM mav - 2010-02-02 5:04 PM Well today was a VERY good day. I ran 4 miles PAIN FREE!!!! It felt great, albeit a little slow. I was cleared by my doctor to return to work....which I need to do ASAP. Perhaps I will not spend as much time in the pool this month.LOL Great news - congrats Mav!! I think I was starting to smell the chlorine from here ![]() I have a question for everyone - I broke down and bought a new pair of running shoes today after only 7 weeks in the other pair. I've had 3 pair of the Brooks Adrenaline GTS shoes prior to changing in Dec. I originally bought the Brooks at the recommendation of my local running store because I overpronated. Liked them and never had any problems, but in December they put me back on the treadmill in-store and said that I didnt overpronate as much (maybe 2 yrs in the Brooks partially corrected it) and put me in a more neutral shoe - the Nike Lunarglide. Very squishy, soft shoe!! Its very comfortable, but after 5 miles I experience some discomfort on the inside of my ankle. I iced it, rested it, etc and every time I run the same thing happens!! Anyone have experience changing running shoes and experiencing similiar problems??> Could this be the cause?? One way to test it would be take a few days off and go back to the Brooks. If its all good, try the nikes again. If the pain re occurs I would bet it is the Nikes!!! Have you increased your volume? Changed your route( doing more hills?)? I definately have au-de-chlorine!!!!! |

I definately have au-de-chlorine!!!!! Havent changed my route/no hills and have slowly increased volume over the last 8 weeks - only change in my running has been changing shoes. The Nikes also have a VERY cushioned sole - its been difficult for me to adapt to them as I feel like the shoes have forced me to alter my normal stride. I ran this 5.8 miles this morning and felt pretty good - no discomfort. Have a good day all |

I honestly have never heard of a shoe "correcting" this. A motion control shoe or an orthotic can correct WHILST you are wearing them, but its not a cure per se. I would err on the side of caution here.I say if it ain't broke do not fix it. Why change a shoe that does not give you any issues??But i am glad that you are feeling ok now!Mojo11 - 2010-02-03 8:12 AM mav - 2010-02-02 8:58 PM Mojo11 - 2010-02-02 8:12 PM mav - 2010-02-02 5:04 PM Well today was a VERY good day.

I would keep the mileage on the low side until you're full comfortable. However, my one concern would be... how long do they expect these ultra-cushy shoes to last? Being that soft, I would think they'd wear out in a big hurry. Just my opinion tho'... never seen these shoes, I can't form a proper opinion. Good run Mike... have a great day. ![]() |

Good run Mike... have a great day. ![]() I dont believe the shoes completely corrected my overpronation, but I guess the thought was that after 1800 miles+ on the same motion control shoes (3 pair) that perhaps I improved my running gate slightly. You could definately see the difference when they filmed my stride on the treadmill, and they thought I would be more comfortable in a neutral shoe - bad idea. BTW - yesterdays run was in the new shoes, not the Nikes. Felt much better. I'll retire the Nikes to yardwork duty Have a good day all- |

Veteran![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Bopper - 2010-02-04 8:29 AM Mike... good to hear that you got this foot pain figured out. Definitely don't want to make things worse, just as they are getting better. You're doing great... keep it up. What new shoe did you get? Went back to old reliable - the Brooks Adrenaline GTS10. Running my first 5k in over 6 months tomorrow night - I'll let you know how it goes |
