Juju Week 5 - It’s TREAT time!

[JaoJao]

Another week done on Juju. I was going to save buying trainers until the end of the Juju plan but I just went for it today! I saw these Kalenji trainers advertised in women’s running magazine and then went to Decathlon to try them out and purchased them, £29.99!

Running shoes don’t have to be expensive!

How did other runners get on this week?

I’m indoors watching the cycling and athletics all day! It’s bliss!

[Kevtrev Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Hope you had a nice chilled day Xx

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Kevtrev]

I went out in my new trainers yesterday lunchtime and they felt so light on my feet and a good cushion of support at the bottom. It's a really good running shoe, designed for road running specifically and I am pleasantly suprised with them.

[Kevtrev Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

That’s great nice and comfy is what you need they sound like a good pair of running trainers 😉Xx

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Kevtrev]

Highly recommended Kev, don’t rule them out next time you need to replace your shoes or if you are looking for a backup option!

[Kevtrev Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

No I definitely won’t I just have to get a neutral pair and if I ever do tuff mudder I don’t want to wear my best ones have you seen before and after people are absolutely filthy after it looks fun though Xx

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Kevtrev]

Oh I need to look out for tough mudder photos. I wonder if a few of us can do a VRB MEET-UP TOUCH MUDDER Party!

[Kevtrev Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Kevtrev]

[Kevtrev Graduate10 in reply to JaoJao]

Yes definitely sounds good is it a team work run or is it possible to do on your own because all I know that you end up muddy very muddy 😉👍

Very nice and a great price. Did you get your gait analysis done as well?

You definitely deserve a treat for sticking so well to the plan.

I’m slowly getting back on form. I did just over 3k which felt ok so I did the Parkrun as well.

Hopefully I can get back to three runs a week soon and start making progress again.

[JaoJao Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Hey rainbow, I didn’t do a gait analysis but I had the help of you tube videos which covered the patterns of wear on your trainers which help identify what your gait is, mine consistently fall in “neutral” gait and I checked this with my friend who has experience from working in a running shop previously. So I don’t have to buy special trainers as such.

I hope you get back to three runs a week soon, take your time and enjoy building up to it again.

Thanks. Have a great week.
