Running

Thanks for the thoughts, I’ve had custom orthotics since late teens, fallen arches length ways and across the knuckles, so I’ve never really run without them, and at this stage it would be a considerable adjustment to drop them.

Run assessment done at a run shop, guy suggested overpronation was contributing to shin splints, physio disagreed (and from working through the rehab and reading into it I understand why she disagreed), but I had handed over my hard earned for the shoes and between them and the s&c I’ve had no issues since, but they do feel heavy and clunky at any speed, so I’d like something a bit faster as I lean into running more. I have been tempted to try my fairly new Pegasus for a 5k again, which have been otherwise downgraded to casual wear.

I guess my overarching question is, is there any point in me buying a fast (carbon plate or otherwise) shoe if I’ll be sticking a custom orthotic into it?
