My friend has been told (by a national chain) that motion control shoes can cause achilles tendonitis and that they should switch to a neutral shoe with a cushioned insole?
I don't know what sort of foot they have, but if we presume the initial advice (from a local running shop) to get motion control shoe suggests a bit of pronation, wouldn't a neutral with cushioned insole do the same? When I was told I over-pronated I had neutral shoes and the osteopath told me to get cushioned insoles until I needed new shoes then get the motion control.
I've never heard of this advice before, hence this querying thread.
Can anyone enlighten me on this? | |

I'm looking to start some interval training. Regular runner getting about 25-30 miles in per week. Current 10K is around 50 minutes, put looking to get that down to around 47.5 minutes (gotta have a target!). Thinking of starting with 4 x 4minutes at 5K race pace (open to suggestions though). My question is, by what should I increase this by? Should I do 5 x 4 minutes and increase the reps, or should I increase the time and do 4 x 5 minutes? Thanks in advance | |
