  • Nothing else comes close

    Love listening to these 4 geeks (in whatever combination). They bring a whole different perspective to shoes with their physio therapy profession which I think is a whole lot more interesting than listening to sponsored shoe reviews with a strong bias.

    I enjoy listening to your knowledge of shoes and running. But Andrea you have to stop saying “like” in almost every sentence. You’re a smart person but it makes you sound dumb.

  • People being excellent at the thing they do.

    Great reviews and discussion from a medical perspective. I love that it has a shoe review but its not really from the influencer perspective, they are not just saying the medical words, they understand them. No criticizm, but would love for them to break activities down from an age and experience perspective beyond their normal breakdown. Ex. why a 60 yr old runner should not use or perform...most goals pivot with age or experience.

    EIther way, I love this show and look forward to their releas... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#277 Mailbag! Best Non-Plated Speed Shoes? Does Toe Spring Effect Hyper Extension? Running Advice for Joint Disease and Arthritis?
Q: What should I look for in a shoe to minimize the risk of aggravating a neuroma?
Look for shoes that have a wide toe box, a forefoot rocker with an apex that does not line up with the neuroma location, and consider metatarsal pads.
#277 Mailbag! Best Non-Plated Speed Shoes? Does Toe Spring Effect Hyper Extension? Running Advice for Joint Disease and Arthritis?
Q: Do you think toe spring is aggravating the injury from a planar plate tear?
Yes, toe spring can lead to hyperflexion or hyperextension which could agitate the plantar plate, so avoid shoes with aggressive toe spring.
#277 Mailbag! Best Non-Plated Speed Shoes? Does Toe Spring Effect Hyper Extension? Running Advice for Joint Disease and Arthritis?
Q: What shoes are recommended for Severs disease in an 11 year old?
A shoe with a moderate amount of drop and forefoot rocker could help unload the calf and reduce tension on the Achilles.
#277 Mailbag! Best Non-Plated Speed Shoes? Does Toe Spring Effect Hyper Extension? Running Advice for Joint Disease and Arthritis?
Q: What recommendations do we have for a non-plated do-it-all road/track shoe?
The Saucony Endorphin Azura could work well, but if sensitivity is an issue, the Topo Flylight 6 could be a better option for its lower drop and stiffer platform.
#277 Mailbag! Best Non-Plated Speed Shoes? Does Toe Spring Effect Hyper Extension? Running Advice for Joint Disease and Arthritis?
Q: Is firmer better? Is more flexible better? All of these types of questions.
For someone with degenerative changes in their first MTP and a hypermobile first ray, a relatively stiff forefoot platform that has a rounding to it without excessive toe spring is recommended.
