After the 30 mile mark my feet start to swell up and throb. On the century I knew better and kept loosening my shoes. I searched and am a little confused. I have read multiple replies to this problem.
Are my shoes to tight? They fit comfortable and are even a little loose when I first put them on.
Am I supposed to be pedaling differently with SPD pedals? I read somewhere that your not supposed to push down when pedaling but act more like your scraping the floor applying more pressure in the heel.
I also read about the cleat position but I already but them towards the arch as much as possible because I'm not a sprinter.
