New Trainers, plus W4: R3 - the official version

I wore my new trainers that arrived yesterday afternoon. They’re More Mile Cheviot 4s, £25! not as wide in the toe box as my favourite Inov-8s, but comfortable enough for now - and more importantly I didn’t once slip - while I’m not doing a huge mileage, which means I can keep my Inov-8s for longer runs, and the one or two trail events I have between now and the end of April.

I did find I was flagging a little toward the end after my wellie boot ‘run’ of yesterday, but the weather was excellent - even if the wind was cold - and the ground was soft underfoot, but not too muddy.

MapMyFitness says I did 2.5k in 25 minutes which includes my cool down walk, but not the warm up one.
