Funky colours those hyperspeed's too.

Some simple, yet challenging, mental maths tells me I need a new pair. Are Asics okay or have any dramatic problems I should be aware of before I buy another pair...?

How often should you replace running shoes? Had some Asics for two years now and they're a little worn but not broken. Should I get a new pair?

As someone who gets asthma if it's even a little chilly when I run it's reassuring to know that it doesn't stop people like LR

Thanks for the suggestion - just ordered a Buff off Amazon (they're on sale!). Soon I'll be needing gloves and leggings and be in full kit territory :facepalm:

With the colder weather I'm getting what I think is exercise-induced asthma - I've never had any problems with my lungs or needed an inhaler as a child and it passes as soon as a I get inside and warm-up. Until the cold spell my times were getting better and better so I'm pretty sure it's not a...

Yep good shout, probably that :)

nice! According to my running app on my phone I ran a 5k PB of 24: 24 two weeks ago and ever since I haven't got anywhere near! 27-28 since. Makes you wonder what could have changed?

This might be a good place to ask about shin splints. At uni I would run 2-3 times a week for about 6-7km in half an hour on a treadmill and recover quite quickly. Having moved home I'm jogging on the pavement and paths (about 5k) and after runs I develop pretty bad shin splints in my lower...
