@carnage_of_motherhood: Shin splints were apparently the sign I needed to FINALLY stop running in basic trainers! 😂🏃♀️ I still feel like such an amateur walking into a sports shop asking for “proper” running shoes. The imposter syndrome is REAL! 🫣 Unfortunately, my first stop was absolutely useless and I left feeling even more clueless than when I went in 🙃 BUT then I went to JD Sports in Llandudno and the lovely girl who helped me was INCREDIBLE 🥹 She actually listened, helped me work out what I needed and ordered the right pair to my house for tomorrow. So after running since JUNE in trainers that were doing me absolutely no favours… WE FINALLY HAVE PROPER RUNNING SHOES!! 👟😭 One more step from Couch to @TCS London Marathon 🥹💪 #couchtomarathon #londonmarathon2027 #beginnerrunner #runningjourney #runningmum @JD Sports @Sports Direct
