Advice for our Lady Runners
Womens Running Advice
Running is a great sport and way to exercise but for women we also want to feel safe.
Here are some suggestions from experienced women runners:
- Run with a friend, its a good way of getting out for your run especially on bad weather days.
- Let someone know where you're going and what time you'll return
- Become a club member and run with a group - see our website or ask in our shop for running clubs available in your area.
- Consider carrying a mobile phone in case of problems (ask in the shop for belts/holders)
- Choose the correct high vis / reflective clothing - be seen, be safe - ask our staff in store for advice
- Involve the family!
Shoes
- We're all different, but specialist ladies' running shoes generally have a different build to men's.
- Some of the same issues apply for men and women - your choice of shoe should depend on your foot type and the the sort of running you do. See our page on Choosing a Shoe.
