2 weeks ago I had very similar discussions with a few people in regards to achilles tendonitis and another person suffering with shin splints. One thing that really helped me along this summer with the stress fracture was making sure that I was always in a supportive and cushioned shoe to minimize impact during daily movement. Funny because I seam to spend most of my days in my runners but of course, it's also flip flop/sandal, hot weather season. With that said, I can't recommend enough the SOLE flip-flop. Super comfortable, they feel amazing. Why is it that we tend to spend tons of money on purchasing great runners for our athletics but then go and buy the $10 flip-flop to walk around in all day? It doesn't really make sense. I fell in love with the SOLE flip flops a few years ago and continue to swear by them. My crew was wearing them throughout Badwater a few years back (and yes, running in them in 55 degrees on pavement from time to time as they crewed.) I know lots of my athletes have already grabbed a pair and are loving them! Send me your SOLE flip-flop stories and tell me why you love'em. I'm keen to hear. Happy flip-flopping.......
