Size does matter.. But bigger is NOT better with shoes
👣
No human needs that amount of rubber under their foot (right shoe).. It is destructive to feet, ankles and knees
👣
The new shoe (on left and worn in pic) will allow this active healthy child’s foot to be.. A FOOT
👣
Healthy Feet need Healthy Shoes.. in this pic is the VIVOBAREFOOT Primus Lite Jnr in black. Head to their website and check them out for your children.. Use the code “THE RUNNING LAB” to get a little discount

Regionals Athletes.. Will you be Air Runner ready in 2018??
🏃‍♂️
Running is a skill that rewards EFFICIENCY!! Each step is a repetition.. and an opportunity to waste valuable energy for the rest of the workout and weekend 🏃‍♀️
Train the skill.. Reap the rewards!!

Pronation.. (follow up to previous post about pronation needing supportive shoes and/or orthotics)
👣
The amount you pronate / roll in at the foot and ankle is MILDLY important
-
The speed you pronate is VERY important
-
Your ability to SPRING out of pronation into your next stride is EXTREMELY important
-
Picture series.. 1- Contact.. 2- Pronation loading the spring).. 3. Spring recoil
👣
“A spring is not a spring if it has no spring”
-
Pronation is the loading of your inbuilt spring.. Pronation is not evil.. But not being able to control pronation can cause injury and pain
👣
The well marketed solution is to stop pronation with rigid supportive shoes and/or orthotics
-
These type of shoes and orthotics have less spring than dried out river beds
-
The better solution is to train your springs!! It takes work.. There are no shortcuts.. But the freedom it grants you to attack life is priceless

What a performance!! Tia-Clair Toomey...

2016 Rio Olympian

That would make a more than handy athletic “career” resume right there... Instead, this is less than 3 years of a resume that will continue to grow
🏋️‍♂️
Epic competitor... Amazing human... Congratulations @tiaclair1

Pronation.. a billion dollar word!! Who has had their walking or running assessed by a Practitioner or shoe shop and seen lines drawn on them like these.. showing how much their ankles roll in (aka.. pronation)
👣
I will put together a follow up post later today on what these lines may or may not mean.. but I would love to hear if you have been sold shoes (or orthotics) after been shown such lines

Super excited to set some goals and work toward them over the next few months
🏃‍♂️
Goal setting method = Open to random page in the Training Journal and aim to Move Better.. Be Healthier.. and generally crap all over the Fitness of the person on said page
🏃‍♂️
Result = swipe across to see the chump I need to make look second rate. Could have been much worse.. so many awesome humans and great content throughout the journal
🏃‍♂️
Congrats to @lachyrowston and @raphfreedman of @themindmuscleproject for an epic product.. and huge shoutout to the designer @elisa_guth_design for producing the goods.. as always

VIVOBAREFOOT Trek.. One of the best shoes I have ever put on my feet!!
👣
Here they are about to get their first use.. at the halfway point of a 42km charity walk
👣
Yep, I walked more than 20km in them on their first wear
👣
When shoes work WITH FEET rather than against them.. they don’t need to be broken in.. and they certainly don’t cause blisters!!
👣
Blisters are the result of shoes fighting the necessary motion of feet
