The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight. The foot lands on outside of heel, then rolls inward (pronates) excessively, transferring weight to inner edge instead of ball of the foot. Push Off The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot. There is even distribution from the front of the foot.
