My running shoes are about to give up the ghost and I wondered if any e could recommend a place website where I could get a decent pair without breaking the bank?

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5... and includes a link to this post about shoes healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

If you have never had a gait analysis done, then it is highly recommended, otherwise you are buying shoes based on incomplete information and you may be wasting money, or even worse causing yourself injury.

Do a search for gait analysis in your area.

I was going to make a feeble attempt at humour and say "on your feet", but I won't... Oh... Wait...

I got mine from a place called Run For It, but any good sport shop should be able to help you, although better still if it's somewhere that offers you gait analysis.

Not what you're looking for?
