Healthy Feet
Healthy feet are the essential foundation for an active life

- Double check your shoes are the right size
- Train in the shoes & socks you intend to wear
- Change socks as often as possible – daily is more sociable

- Roll-a-ball under your feet; it relaxes tight muscles & ligaments.
- Trim your toenails; Lads, a pedicure is cool but a paint job is questionable!
