Hey man, I really appreciate your really thorough reply. I'm gonna pass on this info to my mom.
I feel for you...developing arthritis at your main toe-off joint- especially in both toes in your early 20s had to have been the worst...I'm guessing that squats and deadlifts must have been off of the table (for at least a while) given the chronic hamstring/low-back pain.
My mom is 59 and is somewhat active- just does your run-of-the-mill group fitness classes aimed at women (pink dumbell lifting stuff) and zumba; she began jogging in her mid-50s and has has over the last year developed severe pain in ball of left foot (near MTP joint) as well as plantar fascia of that foot. she began exercising for the first time in her life at around age 44- but until her mid 50s didn't really do anything that required the big toe or ball of foot to absorb much pressure- she'd been doing various low-impact dance classes, yoga, etc. I'm guessing her MTP arthritis isn't due to any congenital deformity, but rather due to a late intro to running and poor running technique.
thanks again man
