[quote=Anonymous]I mostly gave up running a couple years ago (after working up to a half marathon) due to plantar fasciitis and hip bursa issues. Took up biking instead, which I love but it doesn't burn the cals as fast as running. I also just want to run with my kids without risking a flareup. The orthopedist I went to recommended good OTC orthotics, some stretches, and prescribed me 600 mg ibuprofen (which seems like a LOT). Any other tips out there, for gait changes etc? I am short, F and on the tipping point b/w normal and 'overweight' on the BMI scale at the moment -- thus the renewed interest in running. [/quote]
