I gifted myself an Enduro 3

After two years of medical shit and injuries I managed to run consistently for three months. This morning I bought an Enduro 3 and signed up for a 50km trail race this October. Let the training begin! Also, got my longest run in today in several years. I look forward to the miles ahead with my Enduro 3. Just need to figure out how to make the flashlight work. Haven’t figured out the buttons for it yet. 🤪🤷🏻‍♂️

No arch support helped me

I know this may sound strange. But the only way I was able to cure my PF was to get shoes with no arch support. I am back to running 25km a week with no pain. I threw out all my shoes with arch support. Arch support triggers the pain.
I appreciate everyone has a different solution. But oddly this worked for me.
Also, my PT says my arches are abnormally high compared to the average person. 🤷🏻‍♂️

When I discovered Altra shoes were too small at my “normal” size. I’ve been size 9.5 or 43 for most of my life but when I bought these online back in 2016 (shipped to France as I lived in Paris back then), I had to quickly resell them as I discovered Altra shoes need to be size 10 to fit my feet. Since then all my Altra shoes have been size 10 except for my latest purchase of the Experience Flow 3 where 9.5 work well. I ended up buying a size 10 Olympus and enjoyed the shoe for years. Today I bought a size ten Olympus 275. Tried on the 9.5 but it was too short. Still loving this brand.
