It’s easy, right? I mean really, how hard could it be? That’s what I used to think! It turns out that being a race director, and starting a race from scratch is much harder than it seems! The story of the Manhattan Irish Fest Parade 5k for me goes back to the 2013 PSRR Annual Banquet, but de- pending on who you talk to, it actually goes back to the mid 90’s and the first year Irish Fest was held. We weren’t the first to hold a race in conjunction with the Fest, but we were the first to do so in a very long time. My involvement came about after Dave Cyplick mentioned at the 2013 banquet that we were interested in holding a new race, and were looking for ideas. A few days later, Ray Wertelka emailed me and said he was interested in directing a race in his hometown of Manhattan. We talked and emailed back and forth over the next few weeks and decided to contact the organizers of Irish Fest with the idea for holding a race in conjunc- tion with the Fest. We were hoping to meet with the organizers as soon as possible to give us time to plan the race, but it took time to set up a meeting. Irish Fest is a big event and involves dozens of volunteers and committees, but their event has a long history, so they don’t need to hold planning meetings until fall. We had our initial meeting in October, and didn’t receive final approval until December… For a race that would be held March 1! Ray and I had agreed to co-direct the race the first year, and in the future it would be his responsibility. This was the first race either one of us directed, although I’ve been involved in a few races in my time as President of PSRR, and organized the Free 5k this past summer. I felt the need to be involved because I could help pro- mote it, as well as answer questions and make decisions for the club in dealing with the other involved organi- zations. This was, for a first race to direct… Quite the undertaking. We had our club board meetings, Irish Fest board meetings, meetings with the Village of Manhattan. The Irish Fest organizers were great to work with, and helped us wherever needed, but it still was a lot of work to get the details sorted out. For me, it really couldn’t come at a worse time, because as President, the busiest time is the end of the year. I had to plan the banquet, order the awards, and tie up all the loose ends from the previous year… All while helping plan a brand new, somewhat complicated event. At the same time, I was coaching my oldest son’s basketball team and attending (Continued on page 4) 3 (Continued from page 3) much work to do, and seemingly nue to lead the way.

  • Shoe Recommendations for Patients Not All Former Thoughts Regarding
    Shoe Recommendations for Patients Not all former thoughts regarding shoes are true today. Flat feet do not necessarily need a “motion control/stability” shoe. Experienced runners who have proper foot strike and strength can use less supportive shoes. Those new to running, especially if overweight, may benefit from more supportive shoes. Arthritic knees tend to do better with more cushioned shoes. Those with kneecap problems (patello- femoral) tend to do better with lower heel to toe ratio, whereas those with Achilles issues do best with a higher heel to toe ratio. Shoes with a rocker sole (ie Hoka and Nike Zoom Fly) are better for forefoot problems, especially big toe arthritis (Hallux Rigidus), neuromas and midfoot arthritis. Research has shown that it is perceived fit/comfort for getting the best shoe so, make sure you try the shoe on, using your usual running socks, and the end of the day so your feet are as “swollen/spread out” as they can be. Note: for runners in High School, College and those with no injury history consider: ASICS GT-2000 & Cumulus Hoka One One Clayton Nike Air Pegasus For Cushioning (for high-arched feet & those with joint problems) Adidas Supernova Altra Escalante Asics Nimbus (widths) Brooks Glycerin, Levitate, Dyad Nike Vomero (widths), Zoom Fly Hoka Bondi & Clifton (widths), New Balance 1080 (widths) Saucony Freedom For Stability (for mild to moderate over-pronation) Adidas Supernova ST Asics Kayano Brooks Adrenaline , Transcend Hoka Gaviota New Balance 860 & 880(widths) Nike Air Structure Triax(widths) Saucony Guide For Motion Control (severe over-pronators, heavier individuals, posterior tibial dysfunction) ASICS GT 3000 (widths) Brooks Beast/Ariel (widths) Saucony Redeemer (widths) Trail Adidas Terrex Agravic Speed Altra Torin (widths) ASICS GT 2000 Trail Hoka Stinson ATR Nike Wildhorse Everyday shoes for work or walking Joya shoes come in both rocker bottom and non-rocker if you have a forefoot issue get rocker bottom Kuru is also good for people with heel pain.

Kinetic and kinematic comparison ofHOKA shoes to standard running shoes. MS in Clinical Exercise Physiology, December 2015, 52pp. (J. Porcari) The purpose of this study was to compare the kinetics and kinematics of running in HOKA shoes to standard shoes. Sixteen subjects (8 male, 8 female) who ran at least 6 miles per week and had not had a lower extremity orthopedic injury within the 3 months prior to testing were included in this study. Subjects were also accustomed to running in shoes; however, none of the subjects had worn HOKA shoes prior to the study. Subjects ran 10·15 trials at a self-selected pace across two force plates to measure kinetics. To measure kinematics, subjects had retroflective markers placed at the 1st metatarsal head, 1 5 h metatarsal head, calcaneal tuberosity, lateral malleolus, medial malleolus, mid-tibia (shank), lateral knee joint line, mid-femur (thigh), greater trochanter of the femur, anterior superior iliac spine, posterior superior iliac spine, and sacnun.

In addition, we highlight the existence of gaps in these concepts and propose possible new approaches. Methods: This review was undertaken in line with the guidelines proposed by Green et al., based on a literature search (until December 2019) of the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, SPORTDiscus and Google Scholar databases. A total of 23 papers met the inclusion criteria applied to identify the definition of running shoes. Results: Although there is a certain consensus on the characteristics of minimalist footwear, it is also described by other terms, such as barefoot-style or barefoot-simulating. Diverse terms are also used to describe other types of footwear, and in these cases, there is little or no consensus regarding their characteristics.
