If you are running smooth and neutral, they can help keep you there, but if you severely under-pronate have ITB issues, or overpronate and have plantar fasciitis guide rails can help “guide” you back into place. Guide rails are great because it can fix one foot without over correcting the other. This can be an issue for a number of reasons as it can over correct when it isn’t needed. Old stability shoes only had support on the medial side of the shoe. Guide rails are changing the game for stability shoes. It was one of the first shoes to feature guide rails, which we now see a lot of other brands copy. It has the cushion of a Torin Plush but also retains some of the bounciness we see with the Escalante, which is very interesting for a max-cushion stability shoe. When the Paradigm first came out, it was quite revolutionary and like we said before, it is a shoe that can benefit a lot of different runners. What makes the Paradigm such a great running shoe? Next in line is the Torin finally, the Paradigm is at the top of the list for stability and max cushion. The Escalante is Altra’s minimal, bouncy, fun shoe. I’m ready to buckle back down and get to work.Where does the Paradigm lay in the Altra Hierarchy? I'm happy I can do as well as I did, despite not running very many miles in the past three months.Īnd now, it’s on. I'm happy my foot is healed and I'm cleared to go. My current mantra is, that I'm happy I can run again, period. So naturally ultra training resumed this weekend. On Friday my follow up X-Ray showed that my foot is 100% healed. #scrantonpa #scrantonrunningco #montagemountain #conquerthemountain #trailrunnerscommunity #blackdiamondseries #teamaltra #altrarunning #reachelevatediscover #altrarunningfans #embracethespace #zerolimits #biggerthanthetrail #communityovercompetition #runwithher #findyourdirt #womenofultrarunning #trailrunning #motivatedmindset #setgoalsnotlimits #borntorunfree #runnersofinstagram #runpa #runningisnotcancelled #laceupandgo #getupandrun #keepitwild #runnersofthewild #ultratraining #initforthelongrun The rest is just an added bonus that comes and goes.

And my main goal is to stay healthy and injury free in order to be able to do this for as long as I possibly can. Because it makes me happy to scramble up mountains and then fly down the hills to push myself to see how far and high and long I can go to work through the emotional and physical highs and lows I hit along the way.
The reason I run, is because it brings me joy. At the top of the list, listed as the MOST important, was “staying happy and healthy”.
It reminded me of when I first started working with Ben for coaching, and he sent me an intro going over some key pointers for training. Give yourself a month and you’ll be right back where you were.
