Just a thought. Do we know each other? Similar running times and races... What's your initials?

Probably not, I know a few Sunderland Strollers & Harriers & a few New Marske Harriers but no-one from Run Peterlee. I'm a regular volunteer at Hartlepool parkrun so if you do that regularly we'd probably recognise each other. MS

Did the "new" Alnwick Park Run sat, Cragside 10k Sunday.

Park run-Fabulous setting at the back of the castle.
Trail shoes as its on all on grass help(could get away with trainers though not ideal for anyone with any joint issues)...its a three loop course.

Cragside- FREE National Trust 10K (Once a month).If you have never been this is an absolutely stunning location and is off road on mainly tracks.

For everyone this if you want a challenge. You run round three lakes, up and down banks, through woodland and at top have stunning view across towards Cheviot.

Finish off in National Trust tea room for sarnis and coffee!

You could even make a weekend of it as the above two venues are only about 20 minutes apart.

Its a no brainer mate if ,like me ,you enjoy your running( jogging in my case!) especially in great locations and dont take it too seriously.Thankfully,we are spoilt for choice in the north east.Hats off to those who volounteer and make it possible as well.

Saw this,plenty cafes after as welll!Should be canny.
I did dalton pk 10 k not long ago and found it a bit bland( especially for the money?)

Some of the "local" agricultural shows in spring/summer are great ( as most may already know?).Alwinton,Powburn,Glendale ect ..nearly every villlage has its own.Alwinton is renowned for big prize money ...however if you are a " fun runner" they are a good challenge and great fun.I tend to be right at the back but enjoy the atmosphere of just being able to say "i did it."Some top class fell runners who dont turn nose up as they pass you on way down as you are gasping on way up.Makes a good day out as well, especially Glendale which attracts about 20,000 visitors to the show and stalls.Few beers in sunshine at the end with live music, jobs a gud un!

Thought id post in here rather than creating a new thread.

Started running a bit last year until I started getting pains in both ankles/legs.

The pains usually start as little as 1.5 miles into any run. Pain tends to be more left leg around the inside of my ankle running up the inside of my leg a few inches. This only occurs whilst running.

Anyone ever had similar issues? Seems to be a strain type pain when landing.

Im thinking new trainers or maybe arch support insoles are worth a try...

It could just be too much too soon. When you started running did you follow any sort of beginners programme or did you make the usual mistake of just going out & trying to go as far/fast as you could & then trying to better that each time?

Either way I'd recommend going for a gait analysis at a proper running shop. Northern Runner in Newcastle or Let's Run at Stokesley are very good from personal experience. They'll be able to tell you where your biomechanics could do with a bit of help & recommend the shoes &/or inserts to help with them.

Always see a physio. Bet you a fiver that they will tell you the problem is higher up. Glutes. etc. Always told me that when I've had any issue.

Good shoes/shoe advice helps.
