It's called asics gt 1000 4 women's running shoes blue/pink. I can only find a size 3 remaining on a site called fruugo.
Please help?

Why can't you use Google and fine it yourself?

RJnomore1 · 11/12/2016 21:12

Is the colour vital?

What size do you need?

CMOTDibbler · 11/12/2016 21:24

These?

Ahickiefromkinickie · 11/12/2016 21:25

Size 4 and 5 available on this link - www.expresstrainers.com/asics-gt-1000-4-womens-7643-0-p.php?gclid=CPnzooKJ7dACFem_7QodO30ClA

But they're £69.99, so Fruugo are cheaper.

Not sure what size you're looking for.

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 21:28

Rainbow they are the ones!
We don't have eBay accounts.
I have googled extensively and I can't find them.
Yes,the colour is what I'm looking for specifically. I have found them with a base pink colour.
Size 4

Thank you thank you thank you ahickie. Bought! Smile
Thanks everyone else. It was the specific colour in size 4 I was looking for.

Why does it need to be the GT 1000 4?
It's a really old model and the gel and foam will have started to deteriorate from sitting around in a stock room for so long

The GT 1000 5 has several colourways with pink. The 5 will be pretty much identical to the 4, so you wouldn't notice any different while running. And the GT 1000 is an entry-level shoe so I'm guessing you aren't doing loads of miles anyway?

Oh I thought you meant an actual running person that you'd met during some kind of exiting and/or heroic episode.
Balls.
Glad you found the not so exciting shoes though!

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 21:58

Nope. I don't leave the house at the moment since I was violently raped on the 15th September. But feel free to rain on my hopes of getting back outside.

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 22:02

And the runners I used to wear were pink. Hence the need for a different colour.
I'm sure it's important to you though to ridicule me.

Glad you found them, sorry to hear what you've been through Flowers

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 22:09

It's ok zigzag. This just pissed me off. People are so horrible sometimes. Anyway. Lovely new runners on the way. Please God I will recover soon enough to use them.

Sorry to hear what you've been through, myoriginal. I don't think sweets was ridiculing though - just having a lighthearted joke at her own misunderstanding of the thread.

I hope you manage to get yourself out and about soon X

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 22:18

I know that nobody was and I'm just hyper sensitive. It seems to go with the territory. I'm hoping my new runners give me a new lease of life.
Anyway thanks all. And if I do get back running I will come back for advice on that no doubt!

Blatherskite · 11/12/2016 22:20

AIBU is notoriously harsh. If you're feeling very sensitive it may possibly be worth asking to have this thread deleted now you've found your shoes.

Sorry to hear what you've been through

Sweets101 · 11/12/2016 22:20

Oh I'm sorry OP I hope I wasn't insensitive. Running is great and something I've only recently discovered I really enjoy. Hope you get back out there soon

NotAnotherUserName1234 · 11/12/2016 22:23

Sorry to hear that you've been through such a terrible ordeal, in my area there are lots of running groups some of which are just setup informally through facebook, one has different groups out every day with the aim being that no-one ever has to run alone, maybe you can find a group or running buddy in your area?

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 22:41

It's ok. Nobody knew anything when they replied. No harm done. Smile

OP posts:
myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 22:45

Notanother. I can't even bare people behind me. People running behind me would be a no for now. They're trying to stabilize me on meds before counselling. I know I'll get there! It's just baby steps for now.

OP posts:
Crunchymum · 11/12/2016 22:46

Indeed OP nobody knew your (awful) circumstances.

Hope you are able to don your new running shoes very soon and are recovering from your attack.

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 22:51

Thanks crunchy.

PaulAnkaTheDog · 11/12/2016 23:19

No one was ridiculing Flowers. You have the answer to your question (in a short time. Woo! Go mumsnet!) so I would genuinely suggest you hide this thread. There will be people who don't read beyond the first post and make snide comments. Then there might be those truly horrific posters who will comment on your subsequent posts.

I'm glad you got what you needed and hope they might start to help you. I'll be thinking of you Flowers

SantaPleaseBringMeEwanMcGregor · 11/12/2016 23:48

I'm sure it's important to you though to ridicule me.
People are so horrible sometimes.

No one here is ridiculing you or being horrible, I promise. If they were, the rest of us would be digging back on them! The thread is still a safe place. Flowers

Please God I will recover soon enough to use them.

I have faith you will. Sending you some Xmas Biscuit and Brew and a bit of extra strength.

myoriginal3 · 11/12/2016 23:53

I'll be fine. Thanks.
