New shoes! Just in time for week 5 run 3 eek!

Me buying running shoes? Surely not! But I decided my clunky old trainers were likely to cause an injury and am conscious I don't want to bring back the plantar fasciitis I had a few months ago - so now I have some splendidly light and supportive running shoes. Very nervous about wk5 run 3 which is tomorrow so hope the new shoes will give me something to think about while I attempt it lol!
