Take 2 - First run with newer new shoes - better!!!

[Kish247]

Me again! I've gone from not posting in a while to doing it a few times within a week

As some of you know from my previous post, I went back to the store on Sunday and got my new shoes changed up for half a size bigger and I can honestly say the shoes felt better!

Although not perfect and slight pain in the same area (again, this is more the skin being pinched/blistered slightly more than bone-related), they felt much better and I'm not sure if it's just the injury from Sunday that I could feel more than anything else - put it this way, I can walk in my everyday shoes without limping compared to Sunday

Sadly, I'm not as lighting quick as I thought I'd been in my new shoes (joking!) but I can already tell from the last 2 runs (even when the first was painful on the foot) that my right hip and back don't hurt as much so having a supported shoe really is great - perhaps my foot is getting used to running properly now?

Thank you for all your advice, I think without it I would have just kept the shoes I had and moaned about it so much that my partner would have burnt my shoes altogether

30km completed so far this month so feeling good about reaching over 50km in June, especially as 30km is what I achieved for the entire month of May! I've also ran consistently since Monday!

2nd - 5k

7th - 5k

9th - 6k

10th - 1k in the middle of a 5k walk

11th - 5k

13th - 4k

15th - 4k

Thank you. I had 2 days rest on Wednesday and Thursday and I didn't want to go out in my new shoes today because of the rain 😆
