Oow, not good! Where did you get them? Any chance of taking them back?

Yes they said to bring them back if no good. I’ll try another couple of runs next week with the insole in. Won’t be running now til Wednesday so ankle will get a test.

Oh no bad news. I'm scared of replacing shoes as love them but saw today they are beginning to split. I hope the pain eases off. With gentle exercise

Got physio 12 feb. Just told me to reduce mileage and put heel insoles in. Will be more pushy next time I go

Oh no! But it’s good you can return them if need be. Take it easy on the ankle. 😁
