Wow, I'm glad you pointed out this list was 9 years old. I thought I was getting ripped off with the Altus rain poncho being so cheap. Lol. My daughter is ordering it online from Germany to bring it to me in Paris in a month. It's almost a pound lighter than the one I'm train I'm training with.
Hi again. I am hoping to get some recommendations for shoes you use to relax in after you finish walking for the day. I was planning on bringing some Keen sandals, but they are too heavy and just not comfortable.
My everyday sandals that I wore last summer would have been perfect. EXCEPT, I...
Yes, I'm back to my regular shoes, regular inner soles, and foot pain has decreased dramatically. I was overtraining. I'm still in physical therapy due to old injuries.
Last month I posted about a problem I was having with foot pain and had been prescribed orthotics. The orthotics did not fit into my trailrunners. Someone had asked at the time for a later update.
I went through a few sizes of trailrunners and boots trying to get the orthotics to work. Nothing...
I'm looking for a recommendation for a poncho. I found out that my new awesome rain jacket and backpack cover are not going to work. We have been having heavy rain here and the backpack cover does not do an adequate job of keeping my backpack dry.
Last week I went to REI and I talked to a lady...
I did not get custom orthotics. My podiatrist wrote down what I needed on a store flyer for a specialty foot store. She sent me there. I already had my trailrunners for the past months that I have been training in.
I have removed the existing inserts. The orthotics fit when I first put the shoes on. They don't after walking a few miles in them. Especially when I walked on an incline. My foot swells and the shoe no longer fits. I think my mistake was not getting the inserts after a long walk.
I have been wearing my trailrunners for months with a few hundred miles on them. I developed foot pain on the middle of the outside of my foot a few weeks ago. The rest of the pain I had in my feet was kind of phantom pain. It would come and go in other parts. It wasn't anything constant or that...
I wear iniji trail socks. Not one blister with hundreds of miles walking. I've also done marathons. I truly do not want to change socks. With what I've invested in socks, it will be cheaper to buy new shoes.
A few weeks ago, I started to have foot pain. I'm sure it was from overtraining. Regardless, I went to the podiatrist and she recommended orthotics.
I was fitted for orthotics at the specialty store. I brought along both my trailrunners and boots. I've done two training walks in the...
