Walked today – messed up foot – running shoe suggestions?
Posted Apr 17 2011 2:31pm
Well, this morning I only walked
I did something to my foot and it’s bothering me, so running was out of the question.
Walking was less than comfortable but manageable!
I’m going to blame it on my shoes!
On the left, my trusty well worn Nike Zoom running shoes (which they apparently don’t even make this exact style anymore)
On the right, an obviously nearly new pair of Reebok RunTone Action shoes (that I bought almost a year ago and had in closet til a few months ago)
Nike…I’ve worn a hole in the toe of the left foot, they are impossible to get white anymore and have had for at least 3 years.
But, they’re great! Have never had any issues with them!
Then, comes Reebok…ok, I admit I fell for all the stinkin commercials to get a better shaped butt!
then the shoes sat in the closet, and sat, and sat
I did; however, run in them a few days ago and managed to mess up my right foot.
At least that’s what I think caused it.
I never had anything wrong with my foot until I wore these stupid shoes!
According to Reebok The RunTone Action is an innovative running shoe optimized with Moving Air Technology, built-in balance pods that transfer air in response to your stride and create micro-instability with every step of your run. .
Well, I’m guessing the “instability” is what threw me off (ok so I never said I was really coordinated that a “micro-instability” wouldn’t affect me) and messed up my foot while running.
Which is why today I walked…blah!
So, guess I’ll use Reebok for walking (which I had no problems with) and eventually give in and buy a new pair of Nike’s for running.
And, for the rest of today I’m stuck to no running, attempting to stay off foot but not sure how long that’s going to last…
not good at this ’sitting’ thing!
What running shoes do you use?
Any suggestions are more than welcome, just post in the comments section please!
