Re: WOW, I'm not alone!

I have been using my orthotics for appox. 6 months now. they bring some relief, but not as much as I would like. I'm really not sure what they are called but they are made by Ruch labs, they were custom fit at my podiatrists office (actually one of the nicer procedures I've had!) They cover about 3/4 of my foot and are stiff plastic covered with leather. There is a small padded section where the actual spur is. I did go out and buy New Balance Cross-Trainers as per my pod's advice. I wear them while I am not at work, but at work I have to wear steel-toed work boots. They have an advantage over a flat shoe, but I really can't see any marked improvment over a regular running shoe. I haven't tried the Birks that everyone talks about here, but I think I'm going to give it a try!
