I've been doing a bit of 'running' over the last few years, currently trying to build up properly by doing c25k - just so slow otherwise. Anyhow, so far so good, interruptions for hols but just finished week 3. Trouble is.... I've never managed to persist when the weather gets bad. The only place I can run is the canal towpath, which is grassy - I cant run on hard surfaces, buggers one of my hips. This has been ok till now but this morning I just couldn't face the thought of wet feet. Later in the year there will be a couple of very muddy stretches too.
I think I could tolerate running in the rain (though might need more questions on clothing) if I could solve the squidgy feet problem. But the only waterproof shoes I've ever come across are too heavy, designed for walking not running, and also I overpronate quite badly (think Ive got that the right way round) - my running shoes have the right design and are very light....
Are there any running shoes which would cope?
