I tried a bunch and wasnt impressed. I was finally convinced by Skinnyrunner's post on the RR's ones, and got them. I really love them. It might have been luck, but my FIRST proper run in them, (and post-injury) was my first leg of Ragnar, and they were fantastic. Knees didnt hurt at all. I made sure to roll my feet on a tennis ball to loosen them up as well, in case they didn't like the new arch support.Two Little Runnershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10358955748988516036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6113560794810257802.post-7544299619683486042012-06-21T14:09:56.419-07:002012-06-21T14:09:56.419-07:00No, they didn't try the insole up sell on me. ...No, they didn't try the insole up sell on me. I know Penny uses custom insoles from Road Runner, and she loves them. I use a New Balance insole sold separate from the shoe. But I don't think I really need it either.Two Little Runnershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10358955748988516036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6113560794810257802.post-48879376993785838432012-06-21T12:26:17.100-07:002012-06-21T12:26:17.100-07:00Did they try to sell you on the custom insoles?

I did end up getting them but I'm still not 100% convinced I need them.chiarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09597283400851387772noreply@blogger.com
