Normal foot arches correspond to the typical size.
Even distribution of pressure is observed throughout the front end of the foot during the push off.
Effective absorption of shock reduces the probability of injuries, although neutral runners are still susceptible to them.
The foot makes contact with the ground on the outside portion of the heel, and then rolls inward (known as pronation) to absorb shock and bear the weight of the body.
Flat feet or low arches characterize this foot type.
The big toe and second toe carry out the majority of the work during the push off.
