Gait analysis and shoes.

OK, i finally found time to go to Cardiff and get a gait analysis and a good pair of running shoes from Run & Become (Brooks GTS18 - I never thought I would spend that much on shoes) . I know i should have done this sooner, to save the knees, but - busy, busy, busy!

Still, knees are improving now (or I couldn't really have done the gait analysis) and as soon as I feel ready for the next attempt at W9R1 I know i am better equipped.

Really want to go to Run & Become, but not one near me.

Apparently some GoOutdoors do gait analysis, too - but I don't know how experienced they are.

I’ll have a look... there’s only the foot and treadmill type here.

Whereabouts in Cardiff is it Oldjigger? I know there used to be one around by the old bus station (I think) - is it still by there?

St. Mary Street about half way between Wood St and the castle, on the west side.
