Best foot forward
Because it's Friday, and because Weekend Warriors everywhere are preparing to jog, walk, bike, ski and mountain climb their way to all-time fitness heights, it's time to talk about feet. ... Usually not a person's favorite part of the body, but certainly necessary if you're going to function in any sort of normal way. Even amputee athletes have a foot-like device to help them in their sport.
Think of how beaten up our feet must get. They take all the weight, all the gravity, and for what? Blisters and ingroan toenails and bunions, etc. If the feet of an active person could talk, they might say, "Enough already!"
This article (click on "best foot forward") gives practical advice from a Harvard doc, who writes about caring for one's feet and how to fit into the right shoes. Any thoughts? Advice? Suggestions?
