Hello everyone
I'm currently parkrunning once a week alongside other training and have improved my 5k time by some good chunks recently which is nice!
I've also lost a bit of weight so feel I am probably at the point where some racing shoes would be a good investment...
But looking around I cant find any women's dedicated racing shoes for netural feet!!!
I have large feet (size 7) so could buy mens but I just wondered if anyone I had any recommendations...
(my usual training shoes are saucony jazz x mens)
Thanks for any suggestions!

They are nice and light and a good fit. The only negative thing about them is that they have small holes in the soles (I'm guessing to make them lighter) - so they're not good for running in the rain/wet. (Unless you want your feet soaked from the bottom up!
I'd recommend you go to a specialist sports / shoe shop and get your feet gatored to get the right shoe that fits you! (If you haven't already).
Yep but they are fug ugly touie!
Nah trying avoid Lunars as they are expensive!
Thanks Lorn they look good - although I note none in my size waaaaa
(already had my feet done - neutral all the way )
Thanks for the suggestions though - they have some others on that site so I'll have a browse and compare!
Don't buy mens shoes unless you really have to, The anatomy of a womans foot is very different to that of a mans and the requirements of the shoe vary as well.
