I recently purchased a pair of Nike LunarGlide 2 shoes. I was running on the Nike Air Max's and thought they were too stiff. I heard great things about the LunarGlides and wanted to give them a try. I loved them. I loved that feeling of... bounciness. I FELT like my stride improved. I thought my heel strike was gone. My stride shortened and I was running more on the ball of my feet. Quick, short steps.

I was on the treadmill over Christmas. I ran 4.5 miles. No biggie. After I got off the treadmill and was stretching a bit, I noticed some pain in my right foot. This is the foot that I tend to run on the outside of. I thought maybe it was a fluke. The next day, I did the same run. No pain when running, but pain after.

I started looking into the symptoms of plantar facitiis (excuse my spelling). The pain is pretty much localized to the side of the foot. No heel pain. But it started to swell. The top of the foot looked puffy. I iced it. Stayed off of it for two days. I ruled out PF, and a stress fracture. I started leaning towards a pulled tendon.

I stopped running and have mostly just rode. It doesn't hurt at all when I ride. It doesn't hurt when I put pressure on it on out of the saddle efforts. Sometimes, there's a dull ache in the morning when I first get out of bed and walk around. The swelling is mostly gone.

From what I understand, the LunarGlides are for moderate overpronators. I got my pronation backwards. I think my right foot is underpronating, since I'm running on the outside of it. Someone told me I was supinating? (again, excuse my spelling) Could it be that the shoe is pushing the outside of my foot into further pronation? Is this something that can be fixed by switching the insole or is this an entire shoe problem?

Thanks in advance. Any help is appreciated.

I really like the responsiveness of the LunarGlide. I'd like to give it a fair shot, but don't want to make things worse.
