On the offchance that you are anywheer near Lincoln, check out Lincolnshire Runner.

The guys there really know their stuff and will sort you out with what you need without charging you an arm and a leg ( pun intended )

They don't just flog shoes they know what they are talking about as well and will find a shoe that suits your feet and your running style.

I always run off-road due to foot problems causing me to have an op 20 years ago. I am very lucky to have woods which are Crown Estate property within 100 yards, which of course also has positive effects on my house value.


NB: It is well worth investing in the best running shoes you can afford.

There's at least one running shop that'll do the whole scanning of feet, etc. and, possibly, supply insoles contoured to your feet and all that sort of thing. Costs loads.

I stopped running; it was boring and my shins hurt, I always ended up in the same place where i'd started feeling knackered; couldn't see the benefit.
The gym's much better, still boring but my joints won't be as buggered in later life.

It could be true, I've been running on and off for about 14 years, currently run between 55km and 60km a week 10k in 40mins. If I ask anyone my age they recon 25-26, but Im 32 pushing on 33 . Saying that lots of running can give you facial jowls, I can see it my cheeks a bit these days.

Running seems an unnecessary part of the "going to the pub" process.

Get some proper running shoes. If you use road running shoes and you run on grass and mud then you are very likely to fall over.



You must know some really boring people. Everyone I know runs with someone else so they have an excuse to go to the pub afterwards.

I know so many boring people that I do wonder how I cope.

I twisted my ankle running on grass

If you consistently run on pavements, roads and concrete then you will get problems. Man was not evolved to run on such hard surfaces.

Also if you exercise with other people you won't get bored.

Did you consider horizontal jogging as an alternative?
