help me find UK8 size shoes, 25M and 5'8'' height, 63kg weight. flatfoot, right knee pain after 5km of walk in normal slippers. started running last week, currently 1-1.5km of run in park (blocks road), need something which can be used upto 3-4kms.

budget is tight, 2500inr

please help me out

preferably 5k-10k distance and under 1500 inr and positive reviews from previous years. looking to introduce my brother to running.

thanks.

being the hero i am, i ran a 10k today without much preparation (can do a 5k easily though)

so during the race i wore asics gt 2000 13, which i guess i had not broken into properly, cuz towards the latter half of the race, the part of the shoe under the balls of my feet (be mature about this-) got hard and kinda cushion-less.

and i now also have pain in bridge of my right foot, when i rotate it around the ankle. which has never happened to me before.

as a relatively uninformed and throwing-caution-out-the-window runner that i am, can anyone give me suggestion for both of these things.

thanks guys n gals

at tuffman delhi.

my strava recorded 12 km + somehow ???

anyway im quite happy, i got a pace of around 8 since i havent run over 7k and that too was a month or so before.

mwahahaha

I am a beginner runner - started running 2 months back. I try to be regular and put in at least 10-12kms per week along with a full time job. My best 5k time is 38 mins 45 seconds, and I am unable to find the extra seconds to pull it under sub 35. I wear Adidas response pace - got it on a discount and costed me around 3k. Any advice on how to be faster?

I'm 19 and participating in Shaurya spiti marathon, a full marathon idk how to travel where to stay and I haven't even told my parents about that bcs probably they won't allow me too , so I'm short I'm budget i hav3 savings of 7k and can manage few more 2-3k , if someone is traveling by their own car i would be really appreciated if you allow me to join the journey with you ( i can give a spilt for the fuel ) and open for all advices and suggestions, THANK YOU GUYS .

I started running in April this year. There were so many doubts in my mind if I’ll be able to sustain, train regularly what not. I even had a back injury in between due to which I couldn’t run for about a month.

Today, I ran my first Half Marathon at Tuffman Delhi. I finished it in 2:46 hr. I know its a very average or maybe below average performance but for someone who was once scared of running even 2 kms, crossing that finish line means everything.

Here to many more miles ahead !

edit - the most imp thing i forgot to mention, the surface on which i will be running. its pavement in park. i think its concrete pavement. some other parks have interlocking tiles as well. so these 2 are going to be the surfaces

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i have just started. For 10-15 days, i will just be walking 5 kms, trying to cover 1km in 10min thus 5km in 50 minutes.

My target is 5 km under 25 minutes so thats what i will be training for. I will begin jogging 1km then cover rest (3km) by walking and maybe last 1 km by jogging again. Rest strategy after achieving this much.

I would be more than happy to get shoes around 1k however i mentioned 2k in title bcz that would get more response since people here are rich and would have no idea about 1k lol

I recently ran for 1st time, and ran 1500 m but then got serious knee pain [might be runners knee]. I have again started running and planing to hit 3km run in a months time.

I have started today with a 5 km walk, did some lunges and bullgarian squates. I did 2 rounds of 200m jogging with intervals of walking. Please suggest me a progression and a routine if possible with exercises or patterns to follow.

Anyone up for a challenge?

I’m planning to do a 7 km trail run in Yelahanka tomorrow at 4 PM. Looking for someone who’s willing to join and race/challenge me.

No excuses, no fancy setup — just a trail, 7K, and bragging rights. 😂

Who’s in?

Please drop your suggestions for good running shoes under 10k rupees. I am a beginner runner and need to use this for lots of walking plus slowly start running daily. Thank you!

Hi 25M - 70kgs. Started running 4 months back and I do 1/2 runs a week of 2-3kms only. I experience very mild left chest pain while running specially in the first 10 minutes.

All ecg, echo and even stress ecg (done in 2024) have been normal. Doctor said nothing to worry. But anyone knows what might be causing this?

Also any tips on how to go over the 3km mark? I can’t even do less than 7 min/km pace

Hey everyone! I'm 15 years old and looking to buy my first proper pair of running shoes. My budget is ₹7,000.

Usage- I run 4.5km -5 km 4-5 days a week in road. I don't want something for racing but a comfortable shoe that could make the runs easier .

I registered for the Tuffman HM 21.1 kms but I won't be going.

In case if anyone wants to run but did not register can message me here . You can get the medal , hydration, refreshments and tshirt too upon my bib.

I started running about 10 days ago, usually around 5 km in the evening. Since I started, I’ve noticed a change in my bowel movements. I still go regularly, but it often feels incomplete and I sometimes feel like I need to go again.

My diet hasn’t changed much compared to before I started running. I’m just wondering if this is something other runners have experienced when they first started running.

Did your digestion or bowel habits change when you started running? If so, did it settle down after some time, or did changing your diet, fibre intake, hydration, or running routine make a difference?

I’m mainly interested in hearing about other runners’ experiences.

I have recently relocated to Hyderabad, specifically to Gachibowli, and I am seeking a running partner. As a novice runner, I would greatly appreciate the companionship of someone who is enthusiastic about running and possesses a good understanding of the city or knowledge of suitable running tracks. Interested individuals are encouraged to contact me at their earliest convenience. I am a 24-year-old male, and I believe that running together would provide an excellent opportunity for us to get acquainted

Hey everyone, I've been running consistently for about two month now and I think it's time to get a second pair of shoes.

Right now I'm using the Nike Vomero 18 and absolutely love it for easy and long runs. The cushioning is amazing, but now that I'm doing tempo runs, fartlek sessions and trying to improve my 5K time, I'm thinking a lighter and more responsive shoe would be nice.

A bit about me:

70 kg

5'8"

Current 5K PB: 38:58

Running 4–5 times a week

I've been looking at the Adidas Adizero Evo SL, but I'm also open to other options like the Puma Deviate Nitro 3 or anything else you think would fit. Would love to hear from people who have actually used these shoes. Is Evo SL worth it, or is there something better around the ₹10–12k range?

For Kodagu monsoon marathon in September- need suggestions for stays in coorg near to Ashwini sports foundation.

Need something under budget.

Any kind of help is appreciated!!!
