It is possible to buy them in different width fittings I'm told, so you should be able to find some which work for you. Having said that, I have fairly wide feet and these fit fine. |

Re: The running thread.
Yeah that’s what I’m thinking, it’s the same route every week so will give me a good idea how I’m progressing, still not got my head back into it properly yet (same with my terrible eating habits recently as well)

Re: The running thread.
Keep going and you'll get where you want to be. The other parkrun mantra is the "the hardest part of parkrun is getting out of the door!". You could apply that to both the running and lots of other stuff we do (or don't do).

Re: The running thread.
I was planning on going for a run last night but then I sat down and had some dinner and I just can’t run after eating, dog training tonight so no time tonight either

Re: The running thread.
Not a good idea to be running straight after eating! You're likely to see your dinner a second time!

Re: The running thread.
I got out last night, my missus has joined us both to Bishops Stortford running club. And having paid £55.00 each for the year I thought I'd best get over there to start getting my monies worth. It was a nice run - on Strava.
Which is good as I haven't been running in a little while and have 12k and 90 odd obstacles covered in mud to contend with on Saturday! Yep another mud run. |

Re: The running thread.
I really wish I'd gotten around to getting a watch, as I'm not taking my phone through all that crap.
So alas it won't get plotted, but yeah I imagine there will be a pic or two. |

Re: The running thread.
Have a look on ebay Martin. Bit late now I know but there are lots of older and perfectly useable Garmins for sale pretty cheaply. I bought my Forerunner 110 with charger for £18! It works perfectly.

Re: The running thread.
Gary good idea.
Well 12k and 90 plus obstacles done. I now feel tired and battered. I'll post pics later, mainly once they put them up on their site. |
