New running shoes. Update: too narrow 😞

Update: bad news 😞 After walking in them I realised my feet are way too wide for them. I feel stupid for not realising that in the store. I can't return them now 😞 I just ordered these on Amazon instead amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00W76... RIP pink shoes

I got my first ever pair of running shoes πŸ‘ŸπŸ‘Ÿ I'm taking them out for a test walk as it's my rest day, and they are so comfy πŸ˜€ and pink πŸ˜‚

Mmmm I did just the same a week ago - tried four runs in them but no good - back to the running shop tomorrow to buy the right pair! :-( Enjoy your new ones!

If it's only been one walk you might still be able to return them. Worth a try at least!
