Got in 20.4 miles today, shoes were much better, except the last 3-4 miles. Moved the clips back as far as they would go, and stayed center. This placed the pedal axle under the ball of my foot. I was about 1/2" behind the axle, now more on top of it. MUCH better for my feet, just need to get the angle figured out.
I can't believe how worried I was about falling with these pedals, being tied to the bike. Don't feel tied to the bike now, just the feet, like water skis, you can kick them off when needed. I've been practicing unclipping and clipping back in while I ride, it feels much better now than at first. I think with better socks, and a few hundred miles, things will work out.
Thanks for the tips guys
