Just got back from my ist visit to my nearest running store with my new shoes.(I used to go to my local dont know much about the shoe fashion accessory type shop)But really nice bloke in new shop looked at old shoe,s and swooned a bit. The right shoe was worn down to the heal nearly but the left was still relatively ok.So ofter loads of analisis iam not over pronating just slightly unbalenced in leg length and i ended up with new shoe,s and some insert things that go into the heel of short leg shoe that should balence things up over the coming months leading to better running performance so any others out there with simlar problems or the like that have had success with these inserts i have to add i was doing ok(but a bit subceptable to injury in the knee of the leg that was long) Intrested in your thoughts)

As you see, nothing really to add, just confirmation that it happens
Advice: get to podiatrist and check it out.
I'm going again next week and will report back.
I'm very wary of inserts handed out by anyone except a qualified podiatrist as messing with your biomechanics is asking for trouble. You might want to get to the root of the problem either with a podiatrist, or an osteopath, physio, or chiropractor. Or if you don't get much trouble from it, you might choose to just leave it alone!
I'm off to get a life. Do they sell them on the internet?
My right quad is bigger than the left as it's beent aking more weight, and now I'm getting the legs sorted, the left quad is doing more work and is getting knackered as it's not used to it!
In my experience, as you correct one problem, it may kick off others elsewhere. My left quad problem will hopefully resolve as it gets more used to taking more weight, but don't be surprised if you get niggles elsewhere, at least at first. However bad your biomechanics are, your body is at least to some extent used to them, and any change may feel a bit odd.
