Greetings!

A New Year, A New You. You've heard it, you've said it, you've rolled your eyes at it. We get that. It's cliché as can be. Your list probably looks something like this:

  • Improve health (lose weight, exercise more, eat better)
  • Improve finances (get out of debt, save money)
  • Improve career (get a better job)
  • Improve education (get a better education, learn something new)
  • Improve self (become more organized, reduce stress,manage time)
  • Take a trip
  • Volunteer to help others

Here's the cool thing. At Fleet Feet Sports Fox Valley, we're pretty certain we can impact most of those resolutions with our upcoming programming!

 

Here's only a snapshot of the excitement coming in 2010:

March: Grand 'Opening Ceremonies'

April: No Boundaries training program begins

May: Fun Runs

June: Seminar Series

Do You Have SUPERfeet?

There's a Plantar Fasciitis epidemic in the Fox Valley

 
You know when you've got it...it's that awful pain across the bottom of your foot when you first wake up in the morning. Or when you get up from your desk to head to the photocopier.
 
But you've been fit for shoes in the past. And an orthotic. And a fairly unattractive brace for sleeping...You may have Plantar Fasciitis.
 
Plantar fasciitis: the stretching and tearing of the plantar fascia ligament that runs the length of the bottom of the foot. Small tears in the ligament cause inflammation and pain in the heel region and arch.
 
Common triggers? Lack of underfoot support, fatigue, improper footwear.
 

Solution? A firm, supportive insole. Superfeet.

 

The addition of underfoot support to your running/walking shoes (and dress shoes!) will begin to stabilize the foot's bone structure, helping to slow pronation and over-stretching of the plantar fascia ligament.

 
Other Superfeet benefits? Absolutely. Want more info? Check out the Superfeet User Guide...better yet, stop in to Fleet Feet Sports Fox Valley and try a pair on!
Fleet Feet Sports Fox Valley is locally owned and committed to enhancing and growing our local running, walking, and triathlon communities by offering specialty products, educational resources, and training opportunities to assist you in achieving your fitness goals.
