I've seen those, but can't imagine using them!! I have chronic plantar fasciitis in both feet, which makes running virtually impossible. I do walk long distances for exercise, though. I wonder if these have been tested in people with PF?

When I used to run, my knee and back would hurt. It'd take a couple of days to recover and I hated running. Today, not any more. You do have to change how you run (you have to do forefoot/mid-foot strike rather than heel strike that we're often used to) but it is well worth it, IMO.
