DM #334: More foot talk tonight. Call it a fetish ?
—
So just what are we chatting about? Well, that amazing foot of yours not only needs to be able to stiffen up (get your mind out of the gutter) to give you something to push off of, it's got to be able to become supple and absorb shock. Dual functionality. Pretty dope.
—
If that foot can't “unlock” and become supple, all that force (and there's a ton of it) has to go somewhere else. Oh, that poor Achilles tendon. And for those of you who think forefoot striking is the answer to all your problems, think again. That force still has to go SOMEWHERE.
—
Why do I bring this up? Well, mainly because last night's DM was about bunions and “flat” feet, so I figured tonight I'd take it in the other direction. Too much of anything is never a good thing. Too rigid, too loose…no bueno. Just wanting to keep your eyes open to all possibilities.

Alrighty, time to board this flight. ✈️ Maybe. ?
