You could try sessions of barefoot walking each day to try to build some foot strength. Seems you are going through a lot of work with these shoes and was just seeing if the barefoot option might help (even if your doctor frowns upon it!) Of course, as I am in the progress of testing this myself right now, you could wait for me to be the guinea pig :-)Barefoot Brandonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08956790709967004935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-242790541588925003.post-28033951207998952082010-04-15T13:21:19.137-07:002010-04-15T13:21:19.137-07:00Its the Charlie Brown shoes!

Understandably, I've been very intrigued by the whole concept but I am really hesitant to try.<br><br>I think for now, I will continue to live precariously through you. ::smiles::<br><br>Rad Runner Girl, yup, it's the Charlie Brown 'Humvee' shoes!
