My progress for the 5th.
Walking: 1.5 / 7.5 / 46.5 mi
Biking: 5 / 30 / 155 mi
Swimming: 0 / 0 / 8000 yds
I'm slowly isolating the cause of the pain in my feet, heel, and shins to fix them. I've had the shin pains before and was previously successful in correcting the cause by getting new shoes. The feet and heel pain, however is new to me and I thought I'd try out different ensoles to see if I could find something to solve the problem. I originally thought it was poor arch support, but the arch support ensoles only made the problem worse. So, today I tried out a heel support ensole with no arch support and that seems to help a lot. My heels are still a little sore, as are my feet, but they feel a lot better and not as strained as they did yesterday. These ensoles seem to work better, so I'm going to try glueing them into my shoes to see how that does. Hopefully that will do the trick and I won't need to buy new shoes until these are worn out -- it looks like I'm going to have to go to a specialty shop again for the next pair of shoes so I don't have to go through this again with the ensoles (that's how I solved the problem before).
