Hey all,
I run barefoot a few times a week but always need to stop after about a mile due to some weird arch pain. It definitely is not plantar fasciitis. I would guess that it's nerve pain of some sort but I'm not for sure. I usually only feel it while I run or after my runs while walking. Striking more with my inner forefoot seems to make it worse so by mile 1 of my runs, I have to use the outside of my foot and more of a midfoot strike to avoid the pain. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
