Result of Podiatrist Visit

I saw the Podiatrist yesterday. He was unable to discern any problems with my feet, but he said there were some very subtle issues. I understood that to mean that I’m probably just about average as I know no one is ever perfect.

As a first step, he gave me some off-the-shelf insoles from Powerstep. He wants me to use them for a week and take a note of any improvements or lack thereof. Depending on what I find, we may move to more expensinve custom orthotics.

I used them yesterday for a 4-mile run. I didn’t have any knee pain in the normal spot, but I did notice a very slight discomfort on the outside of my right knee. It’s too early to tell if they are making a difference. The real test may be when I try a long run on Sunday.
