Is it still more of an older generation thing perhaps? Mind you my mother is the boss in her house and she’s nearly 80. Do younger men really expect women to be subservient? come on all you surrendered wives, speak up so that I can gain more insight into the modern world

Yes an American who runs the website as a Charity, albeit staffed with a large number of well paid staff, and through the website promotes his books.

Not convinced OP but do agree with the old adages (although not often good at living by them!) – we are what we eat and everything in moderation.

@connie I agree. Lots of money behind the whole vegan thing at the moment. I know some people who work part time for some of the American ‘charities’ on more the 20k a year. I don’t know where its coming from mind!

Also parabens in cosmetic products mimic hormones. Again more research is needed, but these are found in body creams, face creams, shampoo, bubblebaths and are easily absorbed into your system as recent study showed in men who used a shaving cream ( I think) containing parabens then there urine sampled later in the same day contained parabens.
We are exposed to so many chemicals every day from cleaning products, in out food, fire retardent furniture its probably down to a huge range of things!

Does that mean you are expecting to be relegated as well?

@lilly I had a pair from the running shop so would hope they are decent – £8 a pair, no brand name that I can see on them though. I feel a bit of a fraud right now as I’m only up to a 3 min run! But if the shoes kill after 20 mins of walk/run with 3 min burst of running then I’m not going to make much progress. I really, really need for this to work. I am SO unfit. Meeting at a local running club with a huge number of others at a similar stage has been very motivating.

I wonder if it’s to do with the support level. Asics are quite supportive through the arch – I wear them as my feet are quite flat. Maybe the support is too much for you? And then possible sizing issues with some of the others?

@beckye Thanks – you may have something there as I can feel the support in these and the Saucony ones – I did think this was a good thing but if it’s causing the rubbing then maybe not!

Are you wearing them before you start running in them. Maybe your feet need time to get used to them if you aren’t a trainer wearer usually. Also you could try road race trainers. I have a pair of these think they are Peter Merrell. They were about 60 from Tiso and I really like them. They are a bit more like a walking shoe than a trainer.

@connie Thanks – as said above it may be the over-supportive one that could be the issue I will go back and look for some lighter ones.

Thanks soccergal the Brookes were for sure too narrow, but the ASICs and Saucony ones seemed to have plenty of width, in fact I thought that was the problem originally, thought they were too wide/big. I will look at Merrells, and maybe some other lighter types. The ASICs are trail running shoes, but I liked them better than any others in sportsdirect.
My current ‘boots’ are actually smaller than the ASICs, I’d say they have less toe room, and a very thick sole.

Moyes was meant to replicate Fergie and he went after 10 months.

I’m not Mourinhos biggest fan either but his methods work and whilst City are flying, sacking your manager or wanting him to leave would only exacerbate an issue that currently really isn’t an issue.

[faye @faye Participant]

You most likely fractured it, I have done it ages ago. Just put a cushion on the chairs and pain killer and it will eventually heal.

[faye @faye Participant]

As others have said, some shoes definitely exacerbate it so chuck out any that do. I have also used over-the-counter insoles if I know I am going to be walking a lot.

It seems to come in bouts for me, rather than being constant. Five years ago it was so painful that even taking my wellies off made me cry with pain so I do sympathies but mine does seem to clear up after a while and, touch wood, I have now been painless for four years and am running and walking as much as ever with only the very occasional minor twinge so I hope yours goes away soon too!
