Have you thought of trying some Vibram 5 shoes? They’re designed for “barefoot” running, but have a sole to protect your feet from abrasion. They are quite expensive at almost £100 but people seem to get on well with them. There’s quite a lot of evidence that says the modern cushioned running shoe isn’t that great for the body as they transfer the load up the leg, but your pain after running may counter that argument?

Your blog’s great and Ynyslas is one of my favourite places, just the shame we live the wrong side of Aber!

Cheers!
