Just want to say thank you to all who encouraged me to buy spare trainers and do my runs for this week

I started at 5:25 and as I was running along the beach it just felt great and I was glad to be alive

Thank you all for encouraging me to get that feeling

I am glad I left my trainers at home as the spare I brought from tesco are covered in sand so that worked out for the best

Thank you all again that's week8 run 2 done so here's hoping next Friday will see the completion of this course

What a brilliant idea, a cheapie pair from Tesco, see you can tell your a man, a women would have gone for gait analysis, bought expensive shoes, plus socks and a few cheeky tops and maybe a bra and totally justified it , a man grabs some cheapie trainers and still gets a good run , so happy for you. I missed my run this am, ( see my post ) but I may try and run along Perranporth beach later as we are going there

Yes grannyjudes is right , I would have headed for the nearest sweatshop & used it as a excuse to kit my self out big time . Sounds like the perfect run & hope there's more to follow . Happy running
