It's feeling a bit better now (no more pain during normal activities)
What I want to know is if it is down to changing shoes - I've just replaced my old rocklites with the Montrail pheonix (they are essentialy highlanders - rock&run £35 - bargain!) It seems pretty obvious that they have caused my injury - should I just chuck 'em away and get a new pair of innov8? Do I need to worry about pronation issues off-road? I'm an over-pronator but I've been fine in Innov8 and Walsh in fell/trail situations for well over 1 year. I use stability shoes on-road.
Has anyone else suffered as a result of new shoes? Is this just part of the braking in process?
