I'm a complete newbie to running to these forums and BF running in general. I started out a couple of weeks ago by taking the insoles out of my Reebok Realflex and ran with no issues. Check! After giving that a week to see if I had issues, I went out and bought myself a pair of the Bikilas. I get a little pain when I run in them, mostly up the back of my calf on my right leg. Since I can handle 2 miles in them without significant discomfort, I'm going to count them as a 'check' too.
My problem came with I tried to run the same distance, completely BF, that I was able to run in my Bikilas. I had no issues with the run itself but had some serious problems afterwards. The right side of my foot, directly under my pinky toe to the outside, felt like it was going to just slide off of my feet.
My question is, does this sound like a form issue to you long-time BFers? I do know that I had a mid-foot strike and that I tend to land on the outside of my foot and then flatten out. Would really appreciate any and all input!
