Hi
I recently bought a pair of new running shoes. Unfortunately, each shoe is 1lb heavier than my previous pair. Will this injure me during my runs? Also, how will be body adapt to the extra weight, ie, will my muscles develop more, or will be joints just hurt more? My running time has definately slowed as a result, so any suggestions in running better in heavier shoes are welcome.

I run in shoes that weight around 70 grams heavier than my lightweights and even heavier compared to spikes. Don't worry about it.
