Bill I have a question for you?  I agree with your statements.  I started and finished eric's 6 week beginners course.  Then went to the 8 week.  I bought the new balance minimalist shoes because I have wide feet and low arches which I wear orthotics for.  I have only run in minamalist for 10 minutes a total of 4 times since i have owned them. 

I have had tendonitus in both plantar fac and also  achilles tendons and so forth.  No injuries in the beginning 6 weej program.  Starting to get a lot of inflammation under the ankle in both feet.  Which is causing pain while running now. 

 

What do you recommend.  Stop the 8 week program and just go 3 times a week in minalmist shoes to strengthen????? Or something else.  Stuck in a rutt here.

It just goes to show how different everyone's feet are: I read about those and was all excited about them, but then I tried a pair on and they felt really weird.  I guess the lesson is always try on before you buy!

HI Barabra.

Following your thread on shoes with interest as I will be making decisions soon as to which to purchase myself.

Does anyone know if Eric's shoe will include a model for women? My off-road shoes are close to the end trail... pun fully intended.
