Fall is approaching and it's great time to get out there and start a walking program.
One issue many people have when they increase their step count is the onset of plantar fasciitis. This is pain on the bottom of your foot at your heel due to tightening of the calf muscle and/or the plantar fascia. Sometimes this can be caused by mechanical issues at your ankle, knee, or hip so it's a good idea to see your physical therapist to assess this.
However, having a good pair of shoes will help you achieve optimal performance and avoid injury.
