Damn Uggs
Recently my feet have been pretty sore. I experienced plantar fasciitis a couple years ago and can feel it coming back. I couldn't understand why, though, because I have been doing everything to prevent it. Strengthening and stretching my feet, rolling my feet on a golf ball, gradually increasing mileage, etc. Nothing was helping. Today a light bulb went off- my Uggs. Probably one of the most least supportive shoes out there, right behind the flip-flop. Flip-flops were the culprit of plantar fasciitis 2008. All winter I've been wearing my Uggs out of convenience and it needs to stop today.

EEK. that sucks! You should seriously look into the vibrams. They are supposed to really help with people that have PF. They totally helped my knee and hip issues that i had all last summer. If you ever want to discus barefoot running let me know. I LOVE IT! and they would totally strengthen your toes/feet up so much that you should never experience any issues....just saying :) Feel better!
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to try them. I also think I'm going to splurge and buy a Garmin. Which one do you have?
