There is a shop near where I work called Run and Become. They suggest trainers for you, and then make you run up and down the street in them to assess whether they are suitable for you. Always an amusing site watching suited and booteds running up and down in bright white trainers.
Anyway, I digress. I went in and explained my needs - a wonky little toe which means I basically walk on top of the toe and squash it in to a blister over any distance (why this didn't occur to me when I hit apply, I've no idea), very pronated ankles, and a lingering wobbliness from the sprained ankles I had a few months ago. She got me a few pairs out and made me walk up and down in them, and I settled on these
I'm wearing them round the house a bit to break them in. But I'm really pleased with them. I've also bought some 1000 miles socks based on a couple of recommendations, they sound very clever so hopefully they will prevent my blisters.
Now I just need a pedometer and a bumbag and I'm ready to go.
