I have a feeling from looking at race photos of you running, that you are a heel striker.<br /><br />I wonder if starting to modify your strike pattern would ease that heel pain and inflammation. It might be helpful to do a little barefoot running the next time you go to the track so that you can take photos and make observations about how you run in shoes and how you run naturally without hard pavement and risking running through an ant hill in the grass.<br /><br />This is not a big workout, just enough running to make observations and then to see if you can replicate that form with your shoes on. It is hard to change running form and you will find yourself reverting back to your old strike patterns. Your calfs and peronial muscles will be sore, but in the long run (HA!) your heels , knees, and hips will thank you.<br /><br />You are still a young whipper-snapper, but you want to be running fast when you are my age and beyond and running with minimal injury and damage.<br /><br />It is worth playing around with and if it does nothing for you, you can toss it out the window. I just know I have gotten faster and had less fatigue in long distance running by running with a mid to fore foot strike and my legs feel good the day after a race rather than feeling beat up.<br /><br />Oh, have you considered orthodics for your shoes? You said you had a wonky right foot strike. It may help control the pronation and stability.<br /><br />Just some ideas to consider... :)CoachLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06687275155229786220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29677084.post-30552949523367460022009-07-02T08:30:18.917-05:002009-07-02T08:30:18.917-05:00You're twisting my words, John!
