There you go Bint. Not only are they hideously coloured they have a stupid name too. And only 1 pair left in my size.

I love them shoes Carp. And a cool name that will always end with smut :-)

I love my Ron Hill trail top too Bint. There's a second one sitting in my basket waiting for payday to release it into my grubby mitts! It's a full on shopping rampage by the 700ers today.

My new shoes will look a lot like this once I order them..... Cos garish colours without huuuuge midsoles ain't enough to stand out :-)

Oooh Hokas :-)
The Glam Rocker's running shoe of choice.

What are they like to run in?

I *need* a long sleeved Ron Hill Trail top.

I want a ronhill trail top if it has pockets! I'm supposed to be saving up for a proper waterproof jacket

buying a proper waterproof jacket will stop it raining, the evidence I have for this as all winter it hs been too warm for my Sealskinz peaked beanie that I bought myself after last year's cold weather.

It has a zipped pocket plus two other pockets at the back, Rosehip.
A bit like a cycle top.

They mean I can commute with no bag/waistpack at all :-)

I love running in mine - even though my distances aren't exactly the long way they were designed for. Unless there's a category for ultrashort that I missed somewhere :-)

They have definitely helped me run without the traditional pain in the sole of my foot I got with any other shoe. It's hard to describe the feel - they don't feel squishy like I heard them described, but they are definitely softer than my Salomons. I love that I can bounce over stones and other things without feeling anything in my foot and I didn't notice the height after about 10 minutes of running. I sound like one of them there Apple fanboys now :-)

They can be a bit tricky on heavily rutted farmland, but saying that, I turned my ankle in my Inov8 when I swapped over for a comparison along the fields!

Ooooh, I also *need* a long sleeved trail top! I saw that Sport Pursuit had them on there the other day for cheap, but my purchase was vetoed by Mrs A when she saw what I was doing.....
