20 Miles or so in my Salohs
20 Miles or so in my Salohs
Decided that I have been rather lazy of late and I really needed to get over my “runner’s block”. I found inspiration on Twitter after seeing how hard a certain athlete pushes herself and a friend from Denmarkshire urging me to get off my backside. Thanks!
I decided to run nice and easy, concentrating on staying relaxed, fluid and light. I still have some strength issues with my gluteus minimus and medius especially on the left BUT I do know how to fix it while running now. I start to feel the knee drifting inwards so I just very slightly alter how my legs swing by engaging core gently (not forcing it) and imagining change of support and that seems to get my legs and feet behaving themselves again. Running is mainly mental!
Notice I saved the hardest up hill climb for the last couple of miles before the descent back into my village. I’ll do it the other way round next time to see how that feels!



I’m quite tempted by those shoes.
In white and black of course!
Do you know a retailer where I can try a pair on to ensure I get the right size?
Sadly I don’t think they are available any more now which is a shame because choose whatever shoes I try I always end up in my trusty old Salohs!
The Kosmos are the closest and yet they seem to be getting a bit thin on the ground!
