What is the 30DS doing to my feet?!

Hey everyone!

I am on day 5 of probably my 5th attempt at doing the complete 30 Day Shred and my feet are killing me! The top of my feet hurt every time I get a few days in and it scares me (and makes a convenient excuse to stop shredding...) Has anyone else experienced pain in the tops of their feet? It feels almost like shin splints. I am going to plow through it this time and hope that my feet don't break. :)

    What kind of shoes are you wearing? That could have a lot to do with it, especially if they don't have proper arch support or aren't the proper size.

    The last time I did the shred I did feel that way. I ended up doing it barefoot for most of the time. This time around, I bought myself a pair of CHEAP "running shoes" from Target (Champion?) for $24.99 and I have not felt the same problem with my feet. I don't know that it was necessarily all pain, but I would also experience some numbing and tingling that made me very uncomfortable!!!
