Thanks guys, this is really helpful. I have also read about the barefoot research, which is where I got confused. I know that the school won't let her wear plimsoles on the field because of slipping but some with some spikes on sounds a good idea
Hi I need some advice....my 7 year old daughter has started 'marathon club' at school. They run a a marathon over the course of the school year. I want to get her some decent trainers if she's going to be taking it up. I'm confused by all of the different types and brands. Can anyone recommend a good pair? Thanks Donna x
