Shoe porn

[SueAppleRun]

Had to be done, Willow has been having knee pain and as his running shoes were getting worn so off we went for a gait analysis and new runners, I just couldn’t keep my mouth shut so once we’d got a pair sorted for Willow a little voice pops out “and me”

I wanted the pretty coloured ones but these feel perfect

Willow got Saucony Hurricane 22’s and my are 361 Morphit 😀

We have just been for a quick run to try them out and run a couple of kilometres faster than ever before, maybe now i will break 10k it makes a real difference

Happy running all

Those are lovely running shoes for both of you, yes, there is very good chance that both of you can run a 10K in them

This Wednesday I will have had my running shoes for exactly a year, officially I will have ran, including this Wednesday's 10K which will be my tenth, 328 kilometers, although my total probably will be nearer 350Ks as I did not record many 3k and 4k runs I ran during the colder winter icy days just to keep my legs in running order.

Thanks Al these are the first really good ones we have bought

Yours are serving you very well aren’t they?

👍

Aw brilliant new shoes, well done both of you. I wish you many happy runs in them. 🤗

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Grannyhugs]

Thanks we are pleased with them

[FreedomToRun]

Very lovely!! Interesting they made such a difference.

I guess I should know this but how often should we change shoes? I’m running on pavement.

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to FreedomToRun]

I think when they are a bit worn down, I’m not too sure but i’m sure more experienced people will know

[Rigpig in reply to FreedomToRun]

Strava and the Nike Run app let you record what shoes you have done your run in, I think they will recommend you change them out at around 800KM / 500Miles. I have 2 pairs, one pair for pavement and one pair for trail / gravel both excellent at their given tasks.

[Fionamags Graduate10]

Brilliant! I see your Saucony and Morphit and raise you a pair of Brooks! Final coice of 3 made and I'm chuffed to bits. Will add to the shoe porn shortly. 😉

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Fionamags]

Woo hoo enjoy

[59er Graduate10]

I want some!

I'm really looking forward to going to get a gait analysis when we're EVENTUALLY let out to play. I shall mentally make a note of these brands and keep my eyes peeled when I get to the shop 😊

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to 59er]

We went this morning and there was a long queue so we went to other shops and popped home for lunch then went back and didn’t have to wait long

[59er Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Unfortunately our shops aren't open yet so I'll just have to be patient!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to 59er]

Let’s hope they are soon then

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

Great decision for both of you . Lots of new shoes bought on here recently 😊

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Buddy34]

Thanks Buddy

All I have to do now is work out why Strava won’t sync and life will be perfect

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Did you contact garmin

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Buddy34]

No i never thought of that

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

I spoke to them via live online chat

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Buddy34]

Thank you

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to SueAppleRun]

Try going into garmin connect on your phone . Disconnect strava then add it again

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Buddy34]

Have done but will do again

[UnfitNoMore Graduate10]

Lovely foursome! Good to read that they felt good on the test run... go bag that 10k!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to UnfitNoMore]

They are lovely, so comfy that we were running faster than usual and soon a bit out of breath lol

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Fantastic idea getting yourself a pair too W&S! It would have been rude not to. I hope those new babies give you two many happy miles of running. 😀

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to cheekychipmunks]

Thank you 😊

[theoldfellow]

Dress running shoes! What a great idea! You could wear them with a suit, and run away from the event when it got too boring. (5 minutes for any event requiring dress shoes)

I have the 'new shoes' event looming, will try these...

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to theoldfellow]

Ha ha they are actually pettier on the sides i didn’t notice that until after i posted, good luck finding the most comfortable for you

[EThomas Graduate10]

Enjoy the new shoes

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to EThomas]

Thank you we will

[Oldgirlruns Graduate10]

Don’t blame you for wanting new shoes Sola, why wouldn’t you! I hope you both have lots of happy runs in them!

[SueAppleRun Graduate10 60minGraduate in reply to Oldgirlruns]

Thanks OGR 😀we are so happy as these are the first pair of really super running trainers we’ve had
