It could possibly be plantar fasciitis, or pes cavus (high arch). You might want to get it looked at by a podiatrist

proper shoes to fit your foot is VERY important. If you have a high arch and are using shoes that are desinged for a flat foot you could be causing serious damage.

Go to a high-end shoe store that specializes in running shoes. They will able to look at your feet and tell you if you have a high arch or flatfoot and also suggest a good shoe in your price range.

If you run a lot, invest in a good pair of shoes. You may have to pay $100 or so, but its well worth it in the end.

i would suggest seeing a foot doctor if this is the case

Yep if its happen often i would see a doctor.

I have very high archs - if i gently press my foot on a wall you can see under my foot so to speak. In otherwords it won't be totaly flat.

I don't have any foot troubles only the fact that most sneakers are too narrrow for my foot.

Barefoot impact training is a bad idea. I'll echo that you should get two pairs of shoes: a good pair of cross-trainers for impact training and a flat sole, such as Chuck Taylors, for lifting.
