Lovely 10k with my new shoes, great grip on the slippy parts of the trail. I bought a full size bigger because my toes were squashed and near the end in the 6 and a half. Worried that my foot might move I tied them tightly but had to stop and loosen them when my big toe started to tingle ๐Ÿ˜•. After that they felt fine. Trail not too wet so still looking quite clean at the end, although Squiggy was muddy as always ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿถ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿพ

Oh yes, muddy trails are fun and hopefully with the amazing tread on my new shoes NO slipping!
