Hi All. I am on Wk4 of C25k and doing well never having run before. Im running in ordinary trainers but the Occ Health nurse at work suggested i invest now in proper running shoes. In the past i have had a tendency to give up other activities after a while but this time will be different. But with that lack of faith in myself i have been reluctant to invest.
Can i have advice please. Plus i am a woman with bloody size 91/2 feet who doesnt really want mens shoes.

The answer is to go to your local specialist running store with your running gear on, including your current shoes and ask for gait analysis. That will involve a short run on the treadmill, and answering a few questions... they will then present you with some suitable shoe options and the most comfortable of those is your shoe.
