    Thanks Martin.

    C-B, glad you're sorted. If you ever need a non-tri shoe that's neutral and doesn't break the bank, Air Pegasus are easy to find and have served me well for about twenty years.

    Can't remember the name of the company but there is a small business that sells a bike that mimics the running movement without the harshness.

    ^Ah, right. Makes sense.

    Mine isn't for fun - I've set myself a couple of deadlines and then I'll transfer to cycling or hiking. Something easier on the body.

    I'm inclined to believe you. There is a weird scenario when you just relax, eat what you like and enjoy your runs.

    ^Thanks.

    My runs in training aren't that long - usually six to eight and a max of around 15 miles.

    What foods do you eat that have helped you lose weight or speed up your runs?

    I need some 'go to' foods as I'm going to bin all the rubbish. Or at least try not to buy it.
