They are the trail version of the Karrimor Tempo 3.

One benefit of living out in the sticks is that I have access to some really nice trail routes and it would be a real shame not to take advantage of that.

The plan is to give them their first outing on Tuesday but that will just be a couple of laps of the sports grounds. If everything goes well (I am still very nervous about my knees), I will head out cross country for one of my week 7 runs.

Oooooh lovely! I used K Tempo trail for ages, til I traded up to Brooks Cascadia. The Brooks are better in the ice but the Tempo are fine otherwise. I use them now for my gym workouts. I washed em first! Mine were dead comfy right out the box

Good luck with them! Trail running is brill! Take care with your foot placement. You tend to have to look down a lot, but keep one eye on the trail too. Oooer

Yeah lots of hard rutted ground at the moment and exposed tree roots too.

Pleased to report that the noo shoos are fit for purpose.

I was planning to try them out tomorrow but couldn't wait. Went for a run/walk this lunchtime and everything was fine, in particular no hint of knee issues.

I do have to say that they would be absolutely useless for running on tarmac. Even walking on the pavement, I felt like I was on stilts.

Really happy with them, especially considering the price.
