Lovely day for a run🤗🤗

[Buddy34]

After the soaking I got on Monday today was a beautiful dry autumn day . Perfect conditions for a run.

A few months ago I bought another pair of Asics trainers but I was having a few problems with them due to going up a half size . Anyway on that day I had to choose between them and another pair. The other ones were a size 7 and fitted great but I thought I should stick with asics.

Realising I couldn't continue with trainers that were causing problems I bought the other pair and got £40 off.

Ran in them today and they're great, no pain no slipping.

Sounds like you had a good run Buddy34 😊 And the trainers are lovely! But just look at those beautiful calf muscles! 🦵 xxx

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to AliHC]

Never noticed any calf muscles before 😂 more to do with the way I'm standing to take photo. I knew they were in there somewhere

[misswobble Graduate]

Pegasus? I like Pegasus but they got narrow. I don’t like the look of the pointy heel counter either, so i’m looking for a model without it 😃

Enjoy your new shoes. I hope you have many hundreds of kms together 😃

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to misswobble]

Women's Nike vomero 14

[misswobble Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

I tried on a vomero and they are very lovely. Dearer than Pegasus though which is what I plumped for I think they are a bit wider in the toe box than Pegasus too.

Enjoy your running in your new shoes 😃👍

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to misswobble]

Yes they are wider and I managed to stick to my normal size 7 .

[HeavyFoot Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

Does Nike know that a “vommer” is slang for someone who chucks up regularly under the influence of drink?

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to HeavyFoot]

😂😂 vomero - vommer sounds nearly the same.

Great new pair of shoes for you Buddy34, I am so glad to hear from you that you enjoyed your run pain free.

This morning I ran my 4th 10K around Broadwood Loch, time was 72.13, a little slower than my PB of 69.23 when I ran my 3rd 10K on the exact same route, I agree with you that this morning was a wonderful day for a run, nice and cool, keep running in those new shoes without pain.

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Your 4th 10k Almorr that's brilliant . I will catch up one day , I've another 7k next Monday then on to 8k. Enjoy the rest of your day 😊

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

Sorry Buddy, today was my 4th 10K, not 3rd. good luck for your 7K next Monday, still not sure if I will be at Drumpellier on Saturday, I hope to be but with the threat of rain or even snow I'll have to decide a little nearer the time.

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

As of this year they have started holding a fireworks display at Drumpiellier lochs instead of Dunbeth park . It's a shame as the place is full of wildlife 🦌🦌

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Buddy34]

They had to change the venue for the fireworks because of the electric railway being so close to where the fireworks were in Dunbeth Park, they would affect the electricity in the lines and no trains would run hence the fireworks being held at Drumpelliier

Fireworks are more powerful than in recent years, I am sure the wildlife at Drumpelliier would get a fright but would survive, the display in Cumbernauld that I was at took place near a very wooded area with a lot of wildlife, they would get a fright with all the bangs but none died.

Well done AlMoor! Brilliant time 🤩. You’d be home having had food and a nap before I was back on a 10k! 😂! Fantastic! 🤩❤️

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Fabulous450]

Yes Fabulous450, at 5K I was in time for just under 70 minutes but my pace slowed a little in the second 5K part, my 4th 10K, probably the last until next year in the spring, now I will be running 5Ks for the next couple of months, including of course parkruns😊🏃🏾

[Puppy-love Graduate]

Love the shoe porn. Like Ali, I’m impressed by those calf muscles!

[LeeU Graduate]

The new shoes look great and I'm glad they solve your hip pain issue.

It was 23 degrees here at 6am when I went out for a run, I'm sooo looking forward to getting home and going for a run on Sunday in cooler weather!

[Buddy34 Graduate in reply to LeeU]

Beautiful weather for being on holiday or walking LeeU. But a bit warm for running and yes a lot cooler here in the UK 😊

[Fabulous450 Graduate]

Wooh, I like them! 😍 And, there’s no running issues, that’s perfect! Glad you found the right pair to suit you and you had a lovely run in them. 🤩❤️

[Wenderwoo Graduate]

Lovely shoes, and sounds like a lovely run too 😁

[Grannyhugs Graduate]

[Vegout25 Graduate]

Good to hear you’ve sorted your footwear as they are fundamental to your running & your continued enjoyment. Good luck on your the run, you’ll probably smash your PB now that you’re not worrying about your feet 😊👍
