Started running on 15/9 and have just passed one month's worth. So far I've managed to run between 1-2 times a week and join a club (definitely the right move for a newbie). My objective is to stay injury free, build slowly and run at least once a week.
I bought new trainers from a specialist running shop (tested on treadmill) and so all's well - almost!
So far I've not managed to run on anything else but pavement. My feet (heels to be precise) are sore and I'm wondering whether
- this is to be expected or is it something more sinister??
Please advise, cheers

My shoes are Asics Kayano (Wide fit) and they feel okay fit wise around the heel/ankle, although a little roomier around the toebox. I opted for the wide fit as my big toe (right foot) raises slightly on landing.
The socks I'm using are cotton - not specialist
Any thoughts?

I've just contacted the shop I bought my shoes from and I'm popping along on Thursday with my shoes, to try out running on the treadmill, alternative lacing systems and considering in soles for my heels.
I'd appreciate advice from anyone who's suffered this.
Thanks
