OMG I love them went 7.23KM (working towards 10K) They were so comfy but it wasn't until my usual sprint for last minute that I realised I can almost float in them :) Next purchase has to be a Garmin if I had realised how close I was to 8K I would of kept going (I have to map my runs on Geodistance afterwards) Here's to a PB at Parkrun on Saturday !! :) :)

Obviously magic shoes - I think I need a pair like that! Hope it all goes well at the Parkrun.

All the best, go smash that pb- floating in shoes sounds great 😊

I need some floating shoes! ;-) seriously though, well done. You sound very happy with that run and rightly so! :-)

I got Brooks Ghost 8 ( I am a neutral runner) got them from Runners Need and they price matched them for Amazon price so got them for £85 ;) I honestly didn't realise until I did a sprint (after a nice paced jog of 55 mins) that they were so good :) I had so much spring for that last sprint it made it so easy !! :) :)
