Advice on new shoes

    Hi

    I am having a bit of lower leg problems with most shoes that I am wearing. In the past I have had achilles problems on both legs to counteract this I have to do a bit of work on both legs i.e. a lot of work with a foam roller and a massage stick. I am currently wearing a saucony ride 7 and have shin splints on my left leg.

    I have had gait analysis done by 2 or 3 shops all came back as neutral, i have asked a mate that I run with about how my foot strikes the ground and he tells me that I am hitting the ground flush. I was thinking of trying the newton running shoes but as I am hoping to do a full marathon in October i am not sure how this change of running shoe will affect preparation. Any advice on this matter would be gratefully appreciated.

    Speak to a physio with background in running or treating runners, could be nothing to do with your shoes.

    Thanks for the reply, but the reason I have posted this topic is that most physios that I have attended really don't offer any solution they are just happy to keep treating the problem.
