Hi, cax75. I wish someone had suggested I try life without orthotics a long, long time ago. I was first fitted with orthotics in the 1980s, and they enabled me to run practically pain-free for the first time. I'd been a long-distance runner all of my life until a total knee replacement made running impossible (15 years ago). By that time, however, I was irredeemably addicted to orthotics. I'm afraid now, at 79, I need their corrective support. Thank you for your post. It is much appreciated. Cheers! –Ray
