Just a general thread about running. How’s your running going? What are you training for? Did you get new shoes? Sporting an injury etc.

    I realised that recent issues I was having with legs and feet appear to have been caused exclusively by old shoes. I’m not sure how ppl get more than 800km out of a pair of shoes. Mine will barely last 500km.

    Anyway, reminder to track shoe mileage and toss them when they get old. If you search it up you can find info on how to spot shoes that are no longer performing.

      I retire my shoes at 500km. I figure $100 a few times a year is a small price to pay to prevent injury. To paraphrase Death Becomes Her: take care of your feet. You’re going to be together for a long time.
