  • I bought my Vibrams last August and LOVE them! My feet roll in and I've worn arch supports since I was a kid. I really got into running a year ago but was constantly getting hurt - back, calves, feet. It got to the point where I'd finish my run and not be able to move for the next 30 minutes. It was either give up running…
  • Agree - now, I can't run in regular sneakers or risk a flare up of PF. I LOVE my Vibrams . . . although it's the exact opposite of what my podiatrists suggests. But, if anyone's going this route, do your research first. Barefoot or Vibrams take a long time to get used to and they may not work for everyone
  • Definitely get it checked out in case it's plantar fasciitis. PF is easy to fix if you see the doc within 3 months. I waited 9 months before going to the doc and then I was stuck battling it for 2 years!!! It can force you to give up workouts for months if you let it go unchecked. See the doc, take a week or 2 off cardio…
