I have finally decided to retire my loyal and faithful trainers. I have worn them for every step of my c25k journey, and since joining a club, but the day has come. 😥 However I do have to say the new ones are beautiful...I am sure together we will go faster and for longer...

Gorgeous ! Lovely shoes ! What make/model are they ?

D'ya know what as well ? I am really impressed that when peeps post pics of their new shoes on their carpets /floors , they are all absolutely spotless !

My kitchen floor at the moment is covered in pug paw prints and bits of dropped dog biscuits and what not, ha ha !!

I must remember if ever I post a pic to clean first :-D xxx

They are Asics. I tried so many, but these won in the end. The floor had to be cleared of greyhound hair and dog toys...didn't want to get my beautiful new shoes dirty!
