When your feet hit the trail, asphalt, or ball court, they take a beating with every step. Don't wait until foot pain cramps your speed, strength, and style -- learn the basics and finer points of foot care now. Foot expert and ultrarunner John Vonhof discredits the conventional wisdom of "no pain, no gain," teaching instead how the interplay of anatomy, biomechanics, and footwear can lead to happy or hurting feet. With a focus on individual and team care, this updated and expanded edition of Fixing Your Feet covers all you need to know to find what works now and also hundreds of miles down the road.
