Goodness. I'm only lumbering round the woods for 20 minutes at a time, I think I will be OK with the risks involved for now.

The internet is a wonderful thing but it's also very easy to read too much and convince yourself you need special everything for any sport imo.

When you do a serious program over an extended period of time, it makes a big difference having the proper equipment.

If it makes no difference, go running in your normal shoes, why are you buying trainers at all?

20 minutes pottering around the woods, a £20 cross trainer will be more than adequate :D

Panorama/Dispatches did a programme about that and the accepted science is thar it's nonsense.

Gait analysis for running trainers is usually for finding a pair of trainers that fit your feet and will make you feel most comfortable. Obviously there are running trainers that help with over pronation etc, but the best thing is to go to a physio who can do it and asses you if you have problems.

No trainers are going to directly result in a significant performance improvement though.

Exactly, my Physio reccomended gait analysis to allow me to find a pair of trainers that would help me with my problems.

Anyway, we are WAY off topic now :D

Damm you, I would kill to have fibre. I'm pretty sure it will be the prime factor of where I live in the future XD. My village ADSL isn't too shabby. It's just the crappy upload as I like to make YouTube vidoes and 3+ Hours for a 700mb video is just painful

Care to explain more as I'm about to have it installed. If it means blocking torrents, then I'm up for that.

Torrents are a horrible, miss used framework that should now be blocked.

It's not blocking - it's throttling the traffic in peak times. I'm more worried about what it would deem to be P2P and what is normal traffic web traffic.
 
I promise this is the last of my spending for a while!

8 Gig Ram upgrade, 2TB HDD and Blu-Ray drive for the Media Server i bought earlier this month.

Pioneer HTP-071 : Home Cinema speakers with Amp.

Got it all set up now, watching TRON:Legacy :) The speakers+ amp are absoloutly perfect for my set up/size of living room etc. My only complaint is the remote is utter rubbish. Has all the functions but looks and feels incredibly cheap, i would likent it to a £20 hifi remote.
