I started training for my 3rd marathon in Aug 2017. I was in the best shape of my life: strong with only 18% body fat and was running faster than ever! I was determined to break 4 hours in this marathon. Then during a training run in early September, I hurt my foot somehow...

I had my doubts but they really work and work well. I had ball of foot pain on one foot after wearing worn out running shoes. I first tried new running shoes with better cushioning and got some improvement but not much.

35 years of motocross, rodeo, being an Ironworker, and coaching baseball has left me a little banged up... Last year in August I could barely walk... my knees hurt from the abuse and after 6 knee surgeries, I started compensating for the stiffness and that caused more back problems...

I have had excruciating pain in my feet due to osteoarthritis for years which made going for a walk filled with pain and almost impossible. I've tried insoles and orthotics before but never found they made a difference until I tried Protalus.

In a month, I was noticing that my feet didn't ache so much and now it's been about a year and I have insoles for all my shoes. I love the thin ones that go in my get around shoes. I can go for a walk no problem and don't have the pain I used to. I love these insoles and let everyone know about them.

I now have a pair for heels and I can wear my cute boots again because I have the support I need. Thank you Protalus for giving me back my freedom from pain. Now, I just want you to make a summer sandal :)
