"FIXING YOUR FEET: Preventative Maintenance and Treatment for Foot
Problems of Runners, Hikers, and Adventure Racers" - 2nd Edition
This book provides runners, hikers, and adventure racers with a complete
source of information about proper foot care. Too often athletes spend
vast amounts of money, time, and thought on training, equipment and
travel, but spend little or no preparation on their feet. All factors in
foot care are explored. You learn:
- to be proactive in order to prevent problems with your feet through
proper preventative maintenance
- to be reactive with treatments when problems develop
- what supplies and resources are available to help fix your feet
"This is it. The best book ever written on foot care. Everyone who has
been bothered by foot problems or wants to prevent them should own this
book."
Billy Trolan, MD, author of the Blister Fighter Guide, and
Eco-Challenge Medical Consultant.
"This is one of the easiest-to-follow, easiest-to-apply guides to
footcare ever produced and deserves a comfortable, dry, and cozy spot in
every runner's travel bag, triathlete's fanny pack, and backpacker's
rucksack."
Richard Benyo, author of the Death Valley 300 and Making the
Marathon Your Event, and editor of Marathon & Beyond magazine.
"As a diligent student of trail ultras, I thought I'd done my homework,
until I read Fixing Your Feet. This book is the graduate course in foot
care and should be on the reading list for any runner considering the
test of running more than a marathon."
Suzi Thibeault, first woman to complete the Grand Slam of
Ultrarunning
