Another brilliant video! Have to say it’s so refreshing to have an independent shop that gives no pressure advice and help to new runners. Even at 52 I was quite nervous entering the world of running but you guys took me through the gait analysis process and suggested a range of footwear options with no hard sell. Since the start of my c25k journey with my Brooks in July I’ve gained more confidence with parkruns and socials and joining the awesome club at Parc Bryn Bach, via their First Strides group. Now a few months later I ran 100 miles in October including the Richard Burton 10k a couple of weeks ago. Not sure I’d have taken those steps (😉), might have been put off running completely, if you hadn’t have offered a coffee and offered that friendly approach. Thank you 🙏🏼❤️🏃♂️
@Beariam24 hey thanks for the comment, hopefully you've given us a subscribe too :) good idea on the marathon vid. Out of interest, have you done a half yet? Just wondering where to pitch it!
Sub and liked 👍🏼! Nope Iv done a 5k in September and raised money for action for stammering children. After I did this they asked me if I would like to run for there team in the Brighton marathon next April. So I’m literally straight into a beginner marathon training plan and just working out the hard way what is needed almost each week. I think the next purchase is a watch as the pace and heart rate on Apple Watch 7 is awful on a wet day.
@Beariam24 thank you! Wow, big jump up then. I know you're not alone either, as we've got some guys that join our social run doing the same. OK, I'm on it!! And well done on raising money for a very worthwhile cause.
Great advice for new runners!
Thank you Mr F!
