BUT im back on my feet!! NOW. i WAS Severly P.Oed at my self this past Thursday because I rolled my ankle while running! I mean i did a doosie! Its still broozed ect But now I can walk comfertably on it with out pain and am useing a ankle brace… So I went in to research for while I hurt my ankles so often, I know its not just my weight ect… Heres what I found out. There are 3 types of ankle movements, 3 types of arches ect… If you dont get the proper shoe for running it increases your flaws of form and make you way more prone to injury and tight muscle in the legs!!! So I went to Runnersworld to look up the right shoe found the Nike Air max 180 for me! But first I had to understand my feet and how to read how they work… Im a under pronate…. So incase you are giong hmmm with this here are the links. Its easier to educate some one rather than tell them!!!

determine your Pronation type! By looking at the bottom of your shoes soles!
Understand Pronation
Pronation is the rolling of the foot from heel to toe through the foot strike. A proper or neutral pronation is hitting the outside of the heel and up to ball of your foot evenly across the front. This is how your foot reduces the stress of impact.
Underpronation is not enough evening out so the outside of your foot takes most of the shock instead of finishing in the neutral position.
Overpronation is too much roll across from the outside to the inside of your foot.
To determine your level of pronation, look at your shoes you walk or run in. Most everyone will begin on the outside of the heel, the real indicator would be the wear on the forefoot.
If most of the shoe wear is:
-
On the medial (inside) side then you Overpronate and probably need to choose Motion-Control Running Shoes
-
On the lateral (outside) side then you Underpronate and most likely need to choose Cushioned Running Shoes
-
Uniform across the forefoot then you have a Neutral Stride and are best suited for choosing Stability Running Shoes
After you find out what pronation you are go to the runnersworld shoe finder link and enter your info and theres the list of up todate shoes for your type!!!!
