I've just done the wet-foot test thing, I'm VERY high arched it seems, which is why running in my skate shoes is really painful for me.

You should never run in skate shoes :/

From seeing my brothers, they are flat soled, no support for the foot or the ankle and are 'fashion trainers'... good Lord son don't run in them - you'll do yourself an injury!!! (as you obviously already have)

They're not fashion shoes - they're superb for skating in, I wouldn't like to skate in any other type of shoe.


I don't run regularly in them, infact havent gone running in them since before christmas so I'm all good now.

Obviously skating is fine for them... you need the flatness and the surface area to stand on the board, but they aren't for training or running.

I ran once in my stan smiths and they gave me blisters for the same reasons - didn't hug my feet and were too flat.

Sorry Mei, they're not super hero shoes....it's just that I'm a super hero

You need to get "in the zone" hehe. I tend to run like a zombie. If something aches, ignore it. If I start to struggle, run faster. After making a big costly cockup at work that day, I decided to punish myself :/

Just did 4.5k in 30 mins. Still bloody running too fast, but it just feels like I'm running too slow if I go any slower. Oh well, breathing seems to be getting lots better so I must be getting used to it

I hate being away from it all, even for a week. It's amazing how hard your first day back at the gym is after a hol. Going to take my gym & swimming kit to China with me because all of the hotels have gyms etc., so I'll *TRY* and do something every day

I've not been running for a solid 2 weeks now
This damn patio is taking up all my spare time and I'm missing it.
