Pain during boot running
Re: Pain during boot running
Once you get to bat you will find out what are the best boots to wear when deployed, for now suck it up and drive on with what you got, your young and you will heal.

If you want to be successful at anything, you'll need to develop a never quit attitude. Don't let life happen to you. Grab it by the throat and make life dance to your tune.

Push down on your toes while your tring to raise your foot by bending it at the ankle, that works for me.

Re: Pain during boot running
MANY good comments on here especially "S-T-R-E-T-C-H" and "DON'T RUN IN BOOTS" until you have to. Now if you're planning to go to "1st String BN" you'll want to up the ante. I suggest pouring a box of thumbtacks and some broken glass in each boot and doing the standard 12 miler. ONLY if you plan on making 1st BN! Jus' sayin'.
Best of luck Brother!
