Well I did it. Went to The Sweat Shop in Southampton. Got there when they opened at 9 am. Left at 10.30 am. Spent more than I had planned. Got these and some socks. £120 for the shoes. I can return them within a month for swaps even if worn and muddy! What do you think? I am 'normal' which is good to know lol!

I bought excellent quality running shoes two weeks ago after a gait analysis and run my first 5K in them yesterday, very comfortable.

Gorgeous shoe porn there angie! And socks too - a cracking morning’s shopping I’d say! And unlike all the other shoes we pay more for than we’d intended - well at least your Sauconys will be comfy!!

I should have waited lol! I have a habit of starting something and not finishing! I neeeed to do this for me! I am only on W3R1 - next run!

You’re doing brilliant, such a positive attitude! I’m a similar age to you and feeling like I need to do something. If my knee holds out for another week or two, I might be tempted to go for the gait analysis and new trainers🤞🏻😁

Thank you so much. For the sake of your knees, maybe go get a gait analysis! It may help you! X
