Thanks for the thoughts. I'll mention the Ones to the podiatrist and see what they think, and also in my local running shop (which we need to visit this summer to purchase Luke's sports kit for secondary school, eek).

Do remember that it was a patient, methodical approach that systematically buggered up my tendons over a carefully planned 12 month programme of abuse. I sometimes over-plan, and throw common sense out at the same time.

I'm a little bemused that I don't feel a huge sense of regret for embarking on the mid-foot style of running, given the damage it's done. It seemed like the right decision at the time. It's just I didn't understand the difference between tendons and muscles, and therefore how to respond to the feedback. Hopefully some good will come of it in the end.
