Andy helps break in my new shoes!


After a bit of pain in my left knee I decided to wear my new running shoes, (Asics Kayano 14, for the nerd in me);  after letting them sit in my cupboard unsullied for two months.   I figure that I must have run six to seven hundred miles in my previous pair, a good return I think?  I guess that must very roughly estimate to ten pence a mile.  

We ran from Market Overton in the north of Rutland, which required a snack and flask to be packed, just in case!  Really lovely run over fields, tracks and on road.  At a key junction, Andy gamely announced that it would be nice to run through a Wood, what I failed to hear was the reference to the boggy ground.  So, my new shoes are duly christened with mud, sweat and tears!  I shall remember this moment in Berlin!
