Soreness after flights, and rudders

On one of my landings during dual, the Cessna 150 I was in was shaking like
crazy during a TnG. I couldn't figure it out and neither could my
instructor. It felt like a really rough paved strip, but we both knew it
wasn't quite THAT rough. I finally figured out (probably days later) that I
must have had my toes on the brakes by accident. My feet were just too high
up on the pedals. No damage, but I'm kind of surprised that my instructor
hadn't thought of that. Seems like it could be a pretty common problem.

You probaby don't want to have your foot on the brake on the ground
unless you actually mean to use the brake. I teach my students to taxi
with their feet flat on the floor because they would otherwise always
drag the brakes during taxi. Most people seem to want to use brake to
control taxi speed rather than power, which is not a good habit.
