Noo shoos!

[Curlygurly2]

It's been a while since I had new shoes, I've volunteered for a local race at the end of December, the perks included lunch, a t shirt, wine and chocolates, and £10 off at my local sport shop, so what better time to get some new runners?

The service was impeccable, I took all my old shoes, and they gave them all an MOT, that took ages, as I seem to have accrued hundreds (slight exaggeration) of half knackered shoes...we sent 3 pairs to shoe heaven, 3 will live to run another day...

Then on to the gait analysis and trying on loads of pairs, I liked these and another pair, so was allowed to run outside in them, and even with a different one on each foot to make a really informed decision.

Anyway - I settled on these, and they are are just fab!! I love 'em to bits and my first run in them knocked about 6 mins off my usual slow 5 KM time. Shoes have changed a bit since I had any new ones, and these took me for a run rather than the other way round. I have great hopes for increased times...

Great to see you are still out there, Curly.

Still plodding away Tim, been a bit of a struggle to be honest, not had many good runs recently, I hope these shoes are going to change all that!

How are you doing?

[IannodaTruffe Mentor in reply to Curlygurly2]

Saw the hip and knee expert this week and she did not advise me to stop running, as I had feared, but I have to spend another couple of months building up wasted muscle on my left leg, so still no running, but light at the end of a very long tunnel.

Lovely shoes Curlrgurly

I love new balance only ever had New balance since I started out 10 years ago.

The first pair were 768s every pair since have been 860s going up numbers every year I have 860 v 9 at the moment and they were the first pair that I have had that were too tight across the front of the foot I’ve settled with them now but for some time I was a bit worried.

Enjoy your new shoes
