I'm hoping that it might be a combination of tight/poorly tied laces and worn shoes.<br /> Thanks for all the ideas! I think that I'll be staying away from the Mizunos now! </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2543 Tue, 11 Nov 2008 21:05:07 +0000 lassie 2543@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>WOW! they are Mizunos too. Went to the running store to pick up my race packet and talked to them about my issues. They checked my shoes, laces, space .,etc told me that I my have to do trial and error for shoes for long runs. So I bought Brooks shoes. Too late for Sunday's half marathon but I will definitely check them out on longer runs. </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2539 Tue, 11 Nov 2008 14:11:13 +0000 mickieblueeyes 2539@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>I had the same problem with Mizunos. I wasn't very smart. I bought them twice, before I figured out it was the brand. Once I changed brands I was fine. They just didn't like my feet. </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2538 Tue, 11 Nov 2008 02:21:54 +0000 reverey 2538@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>Have you tried a completely different model of shoe? I had a pair of Adidas that did that once...but my Asics are great. Also, try loosening the laces in the middle of the foot and pull them a little more snug at the top...might release the pressure over the midstep where the laces hit the most.</p> <p>As for Lassie's shoe issue with the ball...glad that worked...the re-lacing. You may also want to try either a more cushioned shoe or perhaps an insert so that the ball of your foot has a bit of a pillow on contact when you run. </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2536 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 23:00:01 +0000 lassie 2536@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>I had a problem with the ball of my foot hurting. It was suggested that it may be because my feet swell and the laces may be too tight. The girl at the store retied my laces and skipped the bottom crossover. It helped. Maybe try that but at the area you feel it hurts. I see that there is a vessel crossing the bone at the top of my foot, maybe it is the pressure on that that hurts you. Not sure what to do about that but good luck. </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2533 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 01:29:06 +0000 miaharney 2533@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>I have seen shoes laced "backwards", so that the laces that you tie are on the inside of the shoe. This might help. </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2532 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 23:25:17 +0000 amarky 2532@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>I'll try a different shoe size... I was really hoping to find a way to work with my current shoes though.</p> <p>I've changed how I tie the laces- tried a few ways. But after awhile the pain returns... Any particular way that might work? </p> <p>It's only the inside top part that hurt, and only on one foot... </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2531 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 23:08:11 +0000 miaharney 2531@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>When is the last time that you had your feet measured, sometimes it is just the difference between a 7 &#38; 7.5 that will make all of the difference in foot comfort. I have even seen running shoes that don't have laces. </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2530 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 22:54:15 +0000 tje210 2530@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>exactly where does it hurt? 'near' where you tie the laces is spectacularly general. there are different ways to tie the laces, maybe you just haven't found the right one. </p> http://sweat365.com/forum/topic/596#post-2529 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 22:21:47 +0000 amarky 2529@http://sweat365.com/forum/ <p>When running my shoe manages to hurt the top of my left foot-- near where you tie the laces. At points, I can't run. It feels like my foot is being pinched by something hard. I've tried tying the laces all different ways, different socks and moving the tongue of the shoe around but 1/2 a mile in it hurts. Also, I've tried two different pairs of shoes. I don't know what to do...</p> <p>Any ideas? </p>
