Bunions and Running…One Step At a Time
As marathon season approaches, bunion sufferers everywhere are starting to think bunions and running can not co-exist.
But that doesn’t have to be the case.
Many runners struggle with bunions, whether from poorly fitted footwear or unlucky foot structure. And while the affliction is often painful, it’s not necessarily a deal-breaker – comfortable runs are still in reach.
Bunion Booties slip easily under socks and running shoes, stay put even in vigorous physical activity and work efficiently to realign the toes and reduce pain. Several runners reviewing Bunion Bootie have claimed huge relief during exercise after giving the bootie a shot. Bunion and running CAN co-exist.
What People Are Saying About Bunion Bootie
“While using Bunion Bootie I have noticed a gradual but significant change in my gait and comfort while walking and training for my next run. I feel less pain in my foot, ankle, knee and leg than I have in 5 years. The Bunion Bootie is a lifesaver when it comes to bunion pain.” Emily
“Running and walking is much more comfortable. It seems to correct my big toe from rubbing. The Bunion Bootie is much better than toe spacers very comfortable.”Janice
The most important step (ha, foot pun) toward pain-free running is selecting running shoes to work with your bunion. According to foot.com, the shoes must be wide – perhaps even a half-size larger than your usual fit – and preferably cushioned in the toe area by a soft fabric, such as mesh.
Avoid running shoes with tapering toe boxes. Livestrong.com says such designs are hard on any type of foot – especially those with bunions. Instead, look for round, deep toe boxes to minimize painful contact with the bunion while running.
On the other hand, running is a repetitive and physically impactful exercise, making it particularly uncooperative with bunions. According to Livestrong.com, many bunion-afflicted runners benefit from toe spacers to re-position their toes to their natural anatomical positions.
This is where Bunion Bootie comes in.
Unlike traditional toe spacers, Bunion Booties slip easily under socks and running shoes, stay put even in vigorous physical activity and work efficiently to realign the toes and reduce pain. Several runners reviewing Bunion Bootie have claimed huge relief during exercise after giving the bootie a shot.
If you’re a runner suffering from bunion pain, don’t give up. Rather, keep a positive mindset, select your footwear carefully and consider Bunion Bootie to help relieve bunion pain during physical activity. You’ll be running circles around those other guys in no time.
