First run with my new shoes

30 minute consolidation run in my new running shoes! Absolutely loving them so far, really reduced the tightness around my ankles and calves. If anyone is thinking of getting a gait analysis I would definitely recommend!

I know they are my favourite colour! Which was very lucky as obviously I never would’ve chosen just for that 🙂

Excellent choice! (I bought the same about 5/6 weeks ago 😊)

Thanks, going for my first parkrun on Saturday to try and get the last half k to get up to the 5!

That’s exactly where I am at but lost a bit of my enthusiasm. Think it might be the weather ! Good luck

Yes the weather and dark nights certainly don’t help matters. But I was working in Spain last week and running in almost 30C heat and actually found I was grateful for the colder weather last night!

Oh, lovely! 👏🏼🎉What a great colour for you, PurpleFish - but maybe don’t take the “fish” part too far ... 🤣

Glad I ran yesterday else it might have been a bit more “fish” looking at the weather ☔️
