Yay got out running again

[Diamondshoes]

So first run this morning after dodgy knee kept me out of the trainers for well over a week. And speaking of trainers I got out a second mortgage & an option on the first born to buy some new ones! Well, I floated for 35 mins along the prom - what a difference & no knee twinges afterwards! My partner calls them my magic shoes! (Never mind the blood, sweat & tears it's taken to get this far!)

Great you got back out for a run and yes the right shoes can make all the difference 👍 😀

Fantastic Diamondshoes - what a lovely feeling that must have been. 😀😍 But where are our photos? You realise it’s the law to show them off so we can all drool! 😅

If I knew how to upload a photo here I would. They're Hoka one one - lots of support & one & 1/2 sizes bigger than my usual shoe size!!

When I went for a gait assessment I was given shoes that are one and1/2 size higher than my normal shoes. I was shocked and they felt like boats on my feet for a while but so comfy. It explained why my feet hurt in my previous smaller size trainers 😄

I wore my old trainers for a long walk yesterday & I felt like my feet were bound! I may never be able to wear my "proper going out shoes" again!!

Well done for getting back out there!! New shoes will hopefully add comfort to your courage.

Great effort. A decent pair do cost a fortune but at least they make a difference. My complaint is I run so many kms I'm going to need 2 pairs a year. I shall be looking out for discounts and last years models🤣 happy running 🤗
