Well just that really a thread for any runners on here that wish to share hints. tips and advice on running. I know I could do with advice........
Also if you just want to share your runs on here, because most non-runners can't stand hearing about it, where as other runners actually want to hear other peoples thoughts. Or perhaps its just me that tries to bore everyone with how far I've run this week...... ![]() |

I used to love to run, but dodgy knees and achilles tedonitis just proved too much of a pain in the end, literally ,one tip I could give though is always stretch before you run plus spend a bit of money on decent shoes and if possible find a specialist shop and take your old shoes in with you so they can check wear patterns etc.. so thats 3 tips then

I'm currently doing about 35-40 miles per week and have only ever used Asics Kayano's. I started running at the end of Dec last year and am on my 3rd pair, so I'm off out tonight to see if I can find a cheaper longer lasting alternative.
Always wear good shoes though - really makes a massive difference. |

I need to get some proper running shoes, think I'll get some this weekend.
I also need to work out a new route to do, getting bored of the same thing. Problem is where I live borders some not great areas that I'm not sure I'd like to run through in the dark. Last edited by sarah; 04-10-07 at 01:16 PM. |
