Hello all. Please can I have advice about the above?

My trainers seem fine but is this something I should be looking into?

I’m on week 5 and the thought of someone looking at me running is very scary. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me .

I went to the sweat shop and had my gait analysis and it was out the back of the shop in a separate room they mostly do it by you standing on a glass plate and then walking quickly on a treadmill and only if you want to running on the treadmill but only for a little while. It’s not too bad and they do it all the time and he knew all about c25k 😀
