So, this is getting serious now! W5R2 completed today and fresh from the finish I accepted that a) I’m really enjoying this and b) new footwear is in order - (I’ve been ‘jogging-on’ in a pair of very old, very worn out Sketchers.). I’m now the proud owner of a spanking new pair of running shoes. Who’d have thought it, eh? I hope to do them justice.

Well done you and glad you were able to get a proper pair of running shoes , they will make all the difference. We like pictures of new shoes on here . 😊
Thanks, Buddy34. I woke up early this morning and popped ‘em on. W5R3 due tomorrow and I want to be absolutely certain the new footwear is not going to rub or pinch first time out. I am coming to the conclusion that this journey is not just a physical challenge but it’s a mental one too. “It’s all in yer ‘ead, Mr Tweedy...” (Chicken Run quote!)

Enjoy those new kicks... sounds like it’ll feel like you’re running on clouds if your others were so old. Have a great run.
