Am getting some new shoes - didn't have my size in stock in the shop so have ordered them off the internet - looking forward to trying them out but a bit worried about doing too much in them too soon and maybe risking blisters etc.
you know you're becoming a proper runner when you start referring to trainers as shoes |

ran 9 miles today. My knees feel like they might never work again. Am getting some new shoes - didn't have my size in stock in the shop so have ordered them off the internet - looking forward to trying them out but a bit worried about doing too much in them too soon and maybe risking blisters etc. Hannah's getting quite interested in running too now and wants to come out with me on some shorter runs once the half is done and dusted. She has also challenged gatso to a 100m race which she is confident she will 'easily win'. Today she took part in an under 10s 1 mile fun run, which she completed probably quicker than I could Dead proud of her, as she rightly is of herself. | Click to see full-size image. |
 Is that your back garden, Claire? |

Is that your back garden, Claire? I can see why you thought that, although it's actually more similar to my front garden than my back. It's actually Priory Park in Reigate. |

you know you're becoming a proper runner when you start referring to trainers as shoes Either a proper runner ....... or a chav Definitely still a higher %age chav than proper runner. Felt great from about 3-7 miles yesterday but then really struggled over the rest of the distance, and was probably the first time I finished a run feeling like I had absolutely nothing left in the tank. Last week I felt like 13 miles was going to be easily achievable. Now I've run a bit more of it it feels a bit further from my reach. |

boo - still no sign of my new shoes - was hoping to go out in them tonight  Reminded me actually. When I had the gait analysis done last weekend the woman in the shop noticed that I was overpronating just with my right foot. I'd never noticed before, but it was pretty obvious that my left foot is striking nice and straight and my right one just looks like it has a mind of it's own. Anyway, since then I've been massively aware of it, even when I'm just walking normally, and have actually got a bit self-conscious about it - it's like I've had this disfigurement and I must've been the only person in the world oblivious to it. Took a look at the wear pattern on my work shoes yesterday and round by the big toe on my right foot is massively worn in comparison to the left. Has made me think that this is probably the most likely cause of the unexplained pain in my right leg/hip over the past few years that i've been sent off for x-rays, physio etc for and no one has been able to find a reason. Just watching me walk might have been a good start! |
