Wk 2 run 1. YES!!!

[Cazzy__G]

Woohoo!!! First run of week 2 is DONE!!! I had to pause a couple of times down to pain in my feet (terrible feet, bad foot genes) but I just can't afford new shoes until after my holiday. I will battle on but listen to my poor feet when they tell me they can't take it!! So pleased with myself! 🎉🎉

Well done.

If you have bad feet then they deserve the very best shoes you can afford, preferably ones fitted after a gait analysis at a specialist running shop, which will show what is best for you. A visit to a podiatrist might also be worthwhile.

You should not run in pain.

[Cazzy__G in reply to IannodaTruffe]

There is an outdoor/sports shop near me that do this, I'm planning on visiting once I've been away. I have visited a podiatrist in the past to no avail. She said I've got the flattest feet she's ever seen. Bad times! Insoles and good shoes do help a little but just not enough unfortunately. Cursed with bad feet forever! Looking forward to seeing if a really good running shoe will make a difference but knowing that good shoes only help a bit in every day situations I don't want to spend a fortune just before holiday to find it doesn't do much. 🙁

I have horrible feet as well! And am also in my Week 2 runs... I got new shoes last week fitted by a specialty running store... haven't seen much of a different YET, but hoping I will. I am going out for my next run in about an hour! Hopefully things get better for us both!
