I've recently started running, roughly a mile three times a week and building up to more. My shoes are Champions from Target, about 5 to 6 weeks old, have been running in them since I got them but only recently my feet have started hurting. I run on a dirt/gravel driveway. First my right foot started hurting, on top. I thought it was from when I fell and hurt my ankle/foot (bent it in half kind of), when I was taking out the trash. But now the pain was on the top of my foot and not the bottom anymore. Still assumed it was from my fall. Then a couple runs later, the top of my left foot started hurting.
Now I'm thinking it might be a shoe problem rather than a foot problem. But what would cause the tops of my feet to hurt? I'm not tying them too tight... Or too loose. I thought they fit well. Any thoughts?
