    Trainers? *also new here*

    I am new to this forum, also new to fell running, can anyone please tell me where i can get a decent pair of trainers, where i can get decent information, i recently bought a pair in leeds, but they sold me a pair of walking trainers, i live back in Manchester, and would like to find somewhere i can get a proper fitting for trainers, problem is i am a 5 half, or should i say one foot is, the other is a 5 LOL!

    Got to be a bonus when running a race eh, one foot is always going to come in first! literally!

    i dont know of any where where you can go for fitting, but i have one foot smaller than the other too, but my fell shoes are the same size and my right foot (the smaller one) has no problems. with regards to trainers, do you mean for fell running, road, or trail? You can have a look at all these types on Pete blands sports website, you can e-mail them also for advice. Welcome by the way
    go play on the m 6, now, how does that sound

    Thank you, its for fell running, although my friends think i am nuts, to go running in the cold weather, mmm ponders on how stupid my friends can be!

    I shall have a gander at that website, again thanks!

    Fitting LOL i guess is the wrong word, more like some genuine advice.

    Cheers x
