I was given conflicting diagnoses for the foot pain I was feeling last track season — neuroma, vs. a “stress reaction.” Both podiatrists agreed, however, that my feet had some design flaws…. My grandpa poo-pooed the doctors’ opinions, and told me that all I needed was some good metatarsal arch support (I inherited his feet). I found these spenco for her total support insoles online, and have been running without foot pain for the entire fall season! The arch support combined with the metatarsal pad have been the magical combination for me, and I’m running higher mileage than ever.
