After years of frustration trying to build up milage and always ending up injured I finally went and had a biomechanical gait analysis done.
It transpires I am slightly bow legged, have very high arches and am a supinator (spelling?) not a good shock absorbing/running design.
The podiatrist recommended getting custom orthotics so I had my feet moulded in plaster of paris (messy business).
Couple of questions for anyone who has experience of orthotics
a. have they worked for you
b. Is £195 -the quoted price- reasonable?
c. The plaster cast was taken from my completely neutral (non-weight baring) foot is this normal?
Appreciate hearing anyone elses experiences.
