To: Kathy in Alaska

I finally got the boots I needed today. I rode the bike to a DSW and they only had two styles that were sturdy and had good instep and ankle support.

Amid all kinds of hygienic restrictions I selected four pair to try on (two sizes of each style) and found EXACTLY what I wanted.

I threw out my old riding shoes, so now I have the high-tops for riding and the low-tops for casual wear.

I think I may be on the mend!

My foot is tired right now, but not the searing, burning pain that I have been experiencing.

It’s been a three-month odyssey, but I think I am on the other side of it now.

AND...I got some riding in today. Penny doesn’t seem to want to take such long walks as she used to. She seems content to hang out on the couch, or go visiting.

Good job finding the boots, and hoping the path to less foot pain is in front of you.

Do you have plantar fasciitis? I had that and it was very painful and burning, especially in the arch and heel.
