Again thanks for all your help.
Pencil test the boot soles (read the book).

First recommendation is to stretch thoughly.

The first material solution is to get new running shoes. depending on mileage, 3-6 months is about it.

FYI

Team Sergeant

That's alright, he posted his remarks at 15:01. I'll just find out who he's billing for the 6 minutes between 15:00 and 15:06 and we'll let them fix it.

Thanks again!

Once again thanks you have all been very helpful. To answer Reaper's question of why I have those paticular boots. No body issued them to me I bought them and I heard ripple sole was supposed to be very comfortable. Please correct me if Im wrong. And what would be a better boot for rucking if these are not the best ones?

Just to let everybody I do not have any plans of going SF. At one time I did but not anymore. I just seek advice from true professionals who know what there talking about.

Once again thanks.

Do a search on here. And get the book.
