hi all, I have been to sweatshop and tried Asics Nimbus 14, Ghost 5, Nike Pegasus 29 and new balance. In the end the decision was between the Pegasus and the Ghost. I decided to take the Pegasus, really soft. Have 30 days to try and if do not get on return and get the Ghost. More expensive than online retailers, but well worth going there. Today 1st training day for Berlin |

hi stutyr, yes I know. One is cushioned (under) and the other support (over). I once went to a running shop and they told me that I was not pronating.... Might need to pay a visit to another shop.... |

Hi all, have been out of action for few months resting after suffering from a pain on my right ankle. (Cumulus 12 cushioned at work and 1160 support at home). after x-ray (no fracture), physio has done some tests and ruled out ligament problems. She said the problem is(was) tibialis posterior tendinopathy (tendonities). I have resumed jogging, slightly increasing distance and so fa so good. she has suggested me to get a new pair of cushioned trainers to mitigate foot pronation. I have not tried any yet, but have been thinking about Asics Cumulus, Asics Nimbus or Brooks Ghost. Could you guys make comments/suggestions??? Are there any differences between mens and womens trainers (I am a bloke but the latter are so much cheaper). Having said that I will not make any saving as I am starting a Hal Higdon training program for the Berlin Marathon in September. |

Hi all, I am planning to register for this race. Does anyone know whether there are free parking in Marlow? My plan is to drive and take the shuttle to Windsor to start the race. Cheers, ric |

Just to update everybody: I consulted a physio and they diagnosed my injury tendonitis of the semitendonosis, which is basically the tendon connecting a hamstring to the inner knee.
Hi Dave, How did the physio made the diagnostic??? Touching, massage, etc??? I feel a pain more to the outside (think it is ITBS), have been 2 mths without running. Have been doing some foam roller stretches, etc. Went for a 5K nice and easy run today and towards the end started feeling the f**k pain again. I will book to see a physio and get this sort out quickly. Goal is to run a marathon in 2012 and really concerned now. Would appreciate your reply. |
