Should come with a warning 😎

[uncle_wiggy]

I've not been on the forums for a little while, it's been a busy time but I've still managed to get some good consolidation runs in after finishing C25K programme.

Figured if I'm really gonna be a bit more serious about this and go to 10k eventually, I ought to treat myself to some 'proper' new shoes..... Choosen completely by gait analysis, recommendation & of course comfort, I ended up with these bad boys!

They feel absolutely amazing and I love them but they really should have come with a free pair of shades! ☀ 😎 ☀

Happy weekend running everyone!

Ooo Wiggy they’re rather lovely! No danger of you not being noticed! 😎😀👍

Will look forward to hearing how their first outing goes. 🏃😀👏

I remember one of my first c25k runs when a dog walker commented on my bright orange laces on black trainers 😂 god knows what he would say about these! 🤣

[Bluebirdrunner Graduate10]

Nice shoes uncle wiggy...

Hope you have many happy runs in them! 😊x

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Bluebirdrunner]

Thank you, I hope so too....

[Wizziewood Graduate10]

Lovely ... there'll brighten your day! At least you'll be seen!

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Wizziewood]

That's a definite! I am a little concerned that they are a lot flashier than my running speed! 😳

[Katnap Graduate10]

Are they neutral gait? They look pretty serious so enjoy your journey building on your C25k and the new target of B10k!

Xmas Katnap 😸

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Katnap]

Hey Katnap, yes they are, I found it fascinating how much just the brand of shoes changed my landing foot at slow motion, these just blew all the others away! 😁

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to uncle_wiggy]

Yesterday we went to a sports shop and kitted out my eldest kitten

He's very happy with them. They were one of only 2 pairs that fit him comfortably.

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Katnap]

That's great, I know it's possible to buy shoes cheaper online, which if your buying the same shoes as you've had before works OK, but I'm so glad I went to my nearest running shop, the guy was so knowledgeable and helpful. There was no way I was getting out of there with something unsuitable, but not once did I feel like he was being pushy!

[Katnap Graduate10 in reply to uncle_wiggy]

Absolutely! They want to help you get what will work for you.

[Equi-geek Graduate10]

One run in this weather will tone them down a bit 🤣👍

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Equi-geek]

That's probably not a bad thing! 😂

[UnfitNoMore Graduate10]

Wow! You won’t need any high viz in the moonlight 😂

[uncle_wiggy in reply to UnfitNoMore]

I really don't like running in the dark, so that's one thing I don't think I have to worry about anymore! 🤣

[Deals1 Graduate10]

Likely like!! Happy running in them

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Deals1]

Thank you Deals, breaking them in around the house today as I didn't want to do my long run in them this morning. They can have a first outing on my short one Tues am...👍

[MutleyShuffle Graduate10]

Wowsers what fabulous shoes uncle_wiggy! Enjoy! 😁👏🏃

[uncle_wiggy in reply to MutleyShuffle]

Thanks Mutley, can't wait to get them out there! 😁

[MutleyShuffle Graduate10]

PS I want some! What are they??? 😁

[uncle_wiggy in reply to MutleyShuffle]

New Balance fresh foam hierro 👍

[MutleyShuffle Graduate10 in reply to uncle_wiggy]

Coolio 😁👍

[Hidden]

Hi uncle_wiggy,

Wow, these bad boys look awesome 😎😎😎

Glad to hear you’ve had some good consolidation runs! 🙌🤩👌

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Hidden]

Thanks dreams, consolidation is feeling good, been enjoying some mild temperatures here too!

[Sandraj39 Graduate10]

...hold on, just let me adjust the brightness on my iPad😉 Ah, that's better! I think they're great and as Equi-geek points out - they won't stay that colour for long!!

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Sandraj39]

Owner accepts no responsibility for any damage caused by these lovely shoes! 😂

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

We’ll definitely be able to see you coming uncle_wiggy. They look great and you’ll be flying now. 🏃‍♂️😎

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Dexy5]

I reckon if ran at the right speed for these shoes I'd def be breaking the 10% increase per week allowed! 🤣

[Runningroni Graduate10]

By eck thems proper Bobby dazzlers. They generate an aura of speed. I believe you will enjoy many happy miles of running in them.

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Runningroni]

Hope so.... Thought I was the only one who used Bobby Dazzlers 👍 🤣

[Jundal]

Sweet lord above they're bright enough for me to wear! Even though I only have a couple of runs in my new ones, I'm seriously considering another pair... 😂

[uncle_wiggy in reply to Jundal]

Thoroughly recommended jundal, most comfortable footwear ever... Might get a pair to go to work in.... That would brighten up my office! 😂
