Whether you love hiking, mountain biking, running or some other high impact outdoor sport, sometimes your enthusiasm can outweigh your body’s readiness – especially after a long winter. Still, you shouldn’t let yourself be sidetracked by pain. If you are getting outdoors and noticing some aches and pains that weren’t there last fall, you should first see your Doctor. Here are some clues to figure out what may be going on.

Feet First
When painful symptoms strike, look first to your feet. Common injuries in high impact sports include:
  •     Plantar fasciitis
  •     Runner’s knee
  •     Shin splints
  •     Tendonitis
  •     Stress fractures of the foot
If you have an imbalance in your feet, it will cause imbalances in the rest of your body that can lead to injury. Your feet are your body’s foundation, and they also take most of the shock and stress that you put your body through. If your feet are balanced then the shock and stress will be evenly distributed, but if your feet aren’t balanced then the shock and stress won’t be evenly distributed and cause misalignments or overcorrections that can cause pain in other places – not just your feet
