Re: bad running shoes for my knees?
Mosta,
Flats are meant for fast,light weight, efficient runners. None of which describe you. Also, whether you pronate or suppinate, you still land on the outside part of the heel. Most people pronate(85 %), so I would guess you do to, you just don't know it. Also, running on pavement is the worst possible surface you could run on. So basically, you are a prime candidate for injury. My suggestion would be to go to an actual running store and have them fit you for a pair of shoes. If they don't examine your footstrike and gait, thjey don't know what they are doing and I would go elsewhere. Good luck.
