I did it!!! Week 3 finisher, I thought I may have quit by now..... but here I am with a big smile on my face wondering if it’s time to invest in decent trainers? It was another hot & slow one but I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

I have 2 busy days now, so shall start week 4 Monday!

Have a happy sunshiney weekend all x

Well done!! I completed week 3 this morning as well.

I got some running shoes yesterday and they're absolutely fantastic - I can feel already that my technique is better with them. Go for it! x

I got some ON Cloudsurfers. I tried on loads of different pairs and they were the ones I liked best. Bit more than I was going to spend (£125) but they were so nice and so much better than the cheaper ones I thought I might as well go for it! x

Great stuff. Check out the pinned posts for good guidance on trainers.

I definitely treated myself to new trainers a few weeks in - worked as a reward, motivation (can’t stop now I’ve spent money) and they were much comfier.

Sadly I’ve since gone on to buy another pair of trainers and a running watch so be warned. Buying running gear is super addictive.
