Heading into Manchester in my running shoes and shorts. Feel like a right lemon.

Good for you Jay! Hope it’s not too costly 😂

Me too! I’m hoping they have “my shoes” (whatever they are) in last year’s loud colour that no one in their right mind would wear on sale at 50p....

Dream on jay, dream on! Maybe the sight of you in your shorts and they’ll pay you to leave the shop! 😂

Photo: yes.

Fun? No. This is right up there with clothes shopping for myself to provoke anxiety for me. Fortunately the treadmill will give me an excuse to go red and be sweaty. Panic attack? Me? Noooo.

You are a graduate runner. Be proud! If they have any really garish ones, get them for me!

Garish is good!

I’m hoping for bright orange or bright yellow in there somewhere.

Have fun! I went to Runners Need on Pricess Parkway a week ago... I couldn't even master running on the treadmill lol

Hope you find cheap and very cheerful (lime green/orange) Jay. My sunglasses and me await your photo. 👍

Can't wait to see your photo! After a gait analysis and trying about 20 pairs in the shop, the only ones that were right for me were bright blue! But I love them! And of course it was an excuse for a new running top too, I mean, a girl's gotta be coordinated, right?!? Happy shopping 😀👍

You’ll be fine 😀 I cringed my way through my one but I was so glad I did the shoes were definitely worth it! Go for it head held high knowing what you’ve achieved 😃
