sore feet

Post by rlovatt » October 31st, 2017, 6:56 am

The balls of my feet tend to get quite sore when rowing. I am thinking that maybe running shoes are not the best option.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Any help would be much appreciated.

I use Mountain Bike shoes (with no cleats in obviously), the hard sole helps a lot.
