Bought Equipment

so ok, i know i am posting quite regularly on here and quite un-ordered, but i just wanted to write that i had been out and bought some fell running shoes and shorts...

The fell running shoes ar Adidas Swoop's, which to be honest look beasty but in other peoples eyes they didnt like them ha, ha, maybe they will like them more when they're covered in muck! but i like them, they felt snug and cushioned. i have read quite a few reviews on these shoes before i decided on the inov8 rocklite 295's, but what determined my decision not to get them was based on two factors, one, they were not in the shop i went to, and two, the reason they wern't there is that the manager said they had 15! people bring them back for rubbing the back of their feet after a few times running. he mentioned the swoops have never been returned... i knew what he was trying to do, he didn't have what i wanted and was trying to pursuade me to buy the stuff he did have, but i had already made my mind up as soon as he mentioned the name.

very funnily, i bought some ronhill lycra shorts, ha-ha, which only a couple of weeks ago, were the main sourch of laughter after my camp on Stanage Edge ha. we met some army dudes wearing them, and to be honest they may as well have been bollock naked as you could see the 'button mushrooms' an all... i have however noticed quite how much my legs can chafe when i run, and instantly wanted them for that reason... i tried them on, i can see why they like them so much, very comfy ha-ha. i will however wear shorts over mine...
