Week 5 completed........time for a treat!

About three weeks ago I decided that if I can stick with this running lark then when I reach the end of week 5 then I will treat myself to a new pair of trainers. Well so far, so good and still loving it and always looking forward to the next run! So yesterday was treat time, so I took myself off to the local 'Up & Running' shop in Huddersfield and got my gait checked (over-pronating) and was given a choice of four to try and eventually settling on a pair of Brooks Adrenalines. So tonight will be their inaugural run out, wish them luck and all (me) who run in them! The ones that I had been using were my stepson's that he had left when he moved out, Sauconeys!!! but don't know if they were right for me though. Anyway, bring on week 6 .
