Gait

Hi all,

I’m about to head into week 3 and I’m aware my trainers aren’t up to this kind of physical exercise. Where’s best for a gait analysis?

It’s not something I’ve ever heard of being a thing, but nor was the Japanese slow running technique until yesterday 😂

This place is a fantastic source of information for getting through the couch to 5k program and I’m so glad I found it!

I’m usually found in yoga places and I also climb mountains when I can (not likely to happen this summer, which is why I’ve set myself this running goal). Running is a whole different thing! 🏃🏽‍♀️

This post about shoes may help healthunlocked.com/couchto5... as it has a link to another about gait analysis.

You need a specialist running shop and the easiest way to find one is to to a search for gait analysis in your town or area.

Your shoes are the best investment you can make in your running.

Have found a Go Outdoors near me that does 👍🏻 Pass it weekly but never thought of it!

I got my asics running trainers from there and they were £30 cheaper than buying from asics.

I went to Decathlon store for my gait analysis. I didn’t pay a lot of money for my trainers and they’re fine.
