WARNING…shoe porn…

[Mummycav]

Let me introduce my birthday present…here are my new pair of ‘On cloud’…I always seem to go for this make…I love their colours and styles, this is my 4 pair …I’ve had others in between but none compare to my ‘On’s’

Who else loves this brand?

it’s looking like thunder at the moment here in Yorkshire but it’s Yorkshire day today and I usually celebrate with a run…and running in the rain is my favourite…maybe I’ll go out in an older pair so these don’t get mucky, it’s not my birthday until Thursday anyway so I shouldn’t really have them yet… 🤔

I’ll let you know how it goes when I take them out for their maiden voyage!!! Happy August everyone x

[MissUnderstanding Administrator]

😍😍😍 Wishing you many happy miles together!

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to MissUnderstanding]

If they’re anything like my past pairs I’m sure I will…I think Mo & Jo might get back together now xx

[Bruch1 Graduate]

Gorgeous!

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Bruch1]

Thank you..I’m dying to take them for a trip out!!

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate]

Wonderful new shoes for you Mummycav, happy running, as you say "Mo&Jo might get back together' let's hope so.

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to AlMorr]

Thank you AlMorr …I’m keeping everything crossed 🤞🏼

[AlMorr Ambassador Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

This morning I got my midweek run, today it was 5K in a time of 34:36, started at 07:40 and completed the run just before 08:15, nice run, surprisingly I avoided the rain ☔.

[Annieapple Graduate]

🍏Apple envy! They are gorgeous.. definitely need a photo when you take them out. I think the left one will be Mo & the right one Jo 🤣 x

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Annieapple]

I will make sure I get a pic on their first outing!! You might be right there Mo& Jo reunited!! x

[Jamesrunsforlife Graduate]

Enjoy them 😊

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Jamesrunsforlife]

Thank you…I will do my best!!

[Duddles Graduate]

I'm an On man. My second pair are now on over 850 miles of running. I was put on to them by Flic - who I came across on here some years ago.

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Duddles]

Wow Duddles ..that’s many many miles of happy running…this is my 4th pair now, I’m hooked !!

[Duddles Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

I have a brand new third pair eagerly waiting to be put into action, but I now have an obsession with trying to get pair No 2 to 1000 miles. AND - they are a great shoe for walking around in normal social circumstances.

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Duddles]

My old ones come out now and again…I never think to wear them as normal footwear..maybe I should ?!

[Duddles Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

Never thought I would say this about shoes, but they are beautiful - and add a trendiness to my ancient feet. Those who KNOW and spot them are probably thinking 'this old geezer is almost certainly a secret trained athlete' - at least that is what goes on in my head.....

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Duddles]

🤣🤣🤣 similar thoughts here 🤣🤣🤣

[CredenceRainyDay Graduate]

Oooh lovely... red shoes ❤️Love my Clouds. Currently blue and white ones. Never had such posh rides before but seeing these envying red

Blue Cloud rides

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to CredenceRainyDay]

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Annieapple]

😂

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to CredenceRainyDay]

They’re very nice!! I like bright colours and apart from the colours that ‘On’ do their shoes are fab, perfect all rounder for me 😜

[Wavy-chick28 Graduate]

Oooo shoes!! I’ve not come across this make before but loving the colour enjoy your running in might be a few puddles to christen them 🌧

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Wavy-chick28]

Haha…I didn’t take them yesterday just incase it rained, it didn’t but I wasn’t willing to risk it!! I want a nice dry day for their first outing…I could take some spares in a back pack just incase I suppose?!!

[Scruff55 Graduate]

Oooo lovely new shoes. Happy birthday and many happy miles together 🤣🤣🤣

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Scruff55]

Thank you so much Scruff55 …I’m hoping that maybe I’ll get out on my birthday tomorrow in them 🤞🏼

[Daith]

Ooo how wonderful are those? You lucky thing and 🎉 happy birthday 🎉 for tomorrow. New trainers, a run in the rain in old trainers and Yorkshire Day, what more could you want?

Happy Running ❤️

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Daith]

Lol..it’s been the perfect t week so far!!

Happy running to you too 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️

[Folkylass Graduate]

They are really beautiful and my favourite colour….. I want them !😂😂.

Have lots of happy runs 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️in them and🎵Happy Birthday for tomorrow Mummycav🎵.Have a great day👍🥰

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Folkylass]

Aw thank you Folkylass …I would recommend ‘On’ but then again the first pair of trainers I bought when I started c25k were New Balance & I liked those too..we went on a great journey together!! So it all depends what suits how you run etc…when I had my gait analysis done I came out of up and running with ‘On’ so I guess that just stuck…I have listened to a podcast called ‘Sliced bread’, they talk about all sorts and once the subject was running shoes, they were debating whether you need to spend fortunes on them or whether cheaper trainers are just as good and they did conclude that spending loads on them wasn’t necessary…but I guess it’s down to the individual and what your pocket can stretch to…my hubby always buys my trainers for birthday or Christmas so I’m lucky I don’t have to fork out!! x

[Folkylass Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

I’ve always had Brooks but Ive always fancied a pair of ‘On’ so I might have a look. And as my Brooks Trails are nearly coming to the end of their shelf life and Christmas is not far off I might put ‘On’ on my wish list👍😂😂🥰x

[Daith in reply to Mummycav]

I like the look of "Ons" but have seen people wearing them "à la casual" didn't realise, perhaps stupidly, that they were the real deal. Every day is a school day.

Happy Running ❤️

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Folkylass]

p.s I hope this dreary weather is better for me tomorrow, it’s just grey and miserable today…perfect running conditions but not birthday 🤣🤣🤣

[Folkylass Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

Well perhaps a couple of glasses of Chablis 🥂will be on the cards 😂😂and of course some delicious cake 🎂

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Folkylass]

Def to both!! X

[Folkylass Graduate in reply to Mummycav]

👍👍🥰x

[Doris8 Graduate]

Love your ON’s and the bright colour, wish shoe companies made wide trainers in brighter colour. Have Altra trail in Red/orange so limited to what I get. Listened to sliced bread podcast on Spotify and it was interesting, and other subjects as well. Have a lovely birthday 🎉 Thursday and hope it stays dry to wear your new ON’ s for a run 🎂

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Doris8]

Thank you so much Doris8 …been a bit too rainy but I’m sure their time will come soon

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to Doris8]

Altra are a really good brand, I looked at them too.. MissUnderstanding recommended ‘start fitness’ they have a good sale and free socks!!

[ToothPickJafah Graduate]

Happy birthday Mummycav 🎂🥂🍹🍾

Hope you’ve had a great day and continue to enjoy celebrations. Also hope you managed a birthday run in those beautiful new shoes, they are mighty fine 🥰

Happy birthday runner

[Mummycav Administrator Graduate in reply to ToothPickJafah]
