So I'm just getting off the injury couch after 8 days, kept pulling my right calf and so my knees hurt, I went to sweatshop Ipswich yesterday and had a gait analysis, it was really good. I was a bit apprehensive thinking it would turn into a sales pitch for expensive shoes but that was not the case. The young lady knew her stuff and after finding out my right foot pronates slightly and I heel strike, she showed me lots of different shoes and I tried them on the treadmill both with thermal moulded inners and without.
I settled on the asics GT2000, they are super comfy and super bouncy to stop me jarring my knees. I'm trying them tonight 😀
