Video Analysis Time

I've been told to get my gait checked my a specialist using a treadmill and motion cameras.  


I booked in with PB Running (Personal Best) in St Austell http://www.pbrunning.co.uk/


The shop is run by Andy and he spent 50 minutes with me giving me some great advice about what trainers I need to run the marathon in.  It turns out I was running in the wrong trainers and that I'm a Neutral pronator.


I ended up buying a pair of Asics Cumulus 13 for £85.  Andy also offered  me a good discount if I needed another pair for the marathon.


Here are my new trainers.

So now we are in the New Year and the end of the month I'll be taking part in my 3rd treadmill challenge hopefully.  I'm still waiting for written confirmation.


The fundraising is going well.  I'm up to £1500 now.


I ran my best 6 miles in 0:39:49 at a pace of 6:38 mins/mile on 2nd Jan.  I just need to add more mileage now.
