Follow your feet: Support your walks from heel to toe
In England, the average person walks about 210 miles in a year [1]. In your lifetime, you’ll walk enough to circle the Earth 4 times. That’s quite a bit of pressure on your feet that can lead to all sorts of foot problems. But with the right support, care and attention, you can follow your feet wherever they feel like taking you. This Summer, we’re looking out for all you hardcore hikers, ritual ramblers and Sunday morning strollers.
Walking and hiking communities online, like Flock Together, Common Ground and Gorp Girls, have kicked off and attracted thousands of followers. They encourage us to rebuild our relationships with nature through activities like birdwatching, wild camping and international treasure hunts called GeoCaching.
Keep your feet fresh
Your feet are designed to sweat. They actually have 125,000 sweat glands just waiting for their moment to perspire. Surprise, surprise - add in a bit of heat and time, and this can create the perfect environment for bacteria to thrive. To help eliminate the odour that bacteria produces, try Scholl’s Fresh Step Shoe Spray. A specially formulated, dual action aerosol which instantly eliminates odour from your shoes for up to 24 hours.
