- step or have some form of pronation. check this link: http://www.runningwa…mightyj

You need to get fitted for shoes. Go to a running store. I am doing 8 miles over lunch today, I am stoked.
- Meeklo0
You don't need to get fitted shoes if you are just starting out.
Go get any comfortable running shoe, walk on them make sure they fit right, Brands don't matter, you will be running on them so if they feel comfortable get them.Try not to spend too much either, you don't need the "look at me I'm a runner shoe" at this point, if you are serious about running in a year or so, then go get fitted shoes and buy the fluoest/ orangest shoes your wallet can afford, but for now, comfortable will do
- not getting fitted and running can cause some serious foot pains, IMHOmstocks

any one doing the great 10K Nike run, i think it will be one at the same time as this, maybe we should make a group just for this to see the difference in times?

I'm so like no caring about it anymore.
I did not run at all since C4, and drank way too much these last few days.
Did end up buying new shoes coz of the pain I had in my shins. :o)
We'll see what happens coz I'm getting fed up of at staring at a road.

So............ Nike finally decided to add that Niki+ Mini feature to residents outside of the US. It's kinda cool. What's sux is that I ended up looking like Don Quixote. :O(
I'll post something later.
On a side note... My new shoes rock!!! My old 8lbs bullet proof Nike Shox shoes were cool but not that comfortable. This new ones are basic running shoes but light as feathers with the perfect width for my feet. :o)
- nib1010
that Nike+ Mini thing doesn't work properly for me but i guess it's still a beta. I didn't realise my head was so big either.
Dancer, 10k in under 40 mins is tough, i've got close a few times but never quite got there. Good luck!

I tried them on and they are weird man. But very light ;o)VectorMasked - They def. fit me well, and I have 30 days to enjoy them, if I don't like them I can get a full refund.
