either buy an arm holster or running belt
Thanks. Yeah, that would work well. Pity, I have a Nike armholster I bought years ago in black and yellow but it only has a narrow small pocket to accommodate my old silver ipod. I like the idea of another armholster to fit the phone, so definitely something for me to consider. I tried a couple of thin hoodies today in Tesco, none of which I liked, but they both had one external zip up chest pocket on the left. I tried them on and put my phone in and it felt fine so that could work well too.
It's not perfect, but try this. Will help you to find the type of shoe you want. Then you could ring somewhere like Runners Need and get their advice based on your budget

Runrepeat are a decent place to start to compare prices too.
Thanks Martyn and neoboy.
Now, I have some nice Gore jogging tights, that have a tight pocket on the leg for a phone and a small zip pocket on the lower back for keys. In the past I've used a running belt that you can get off Amazon for about a tenner and it was fine. I have no recommendations, but I will say, I was in a lot of pain when I used to run in 'regular' trainers. I spend £100+ on proper running shoes and it made a huge difference to my ability to run without pain in the souls of my feet or my shins and calves. I know it doesn't help, just bear it in mind
I like the look of those tights but although my legs are slim, I'm 61 (a young looking 61 mind
) and I think those tights are for you younger folk.
I bought three things at Tesco before I saw any replies. A pair of joggers, shoes and some long johns. What do you think of them? The shoes are actually lightweight, surprised me considering it's Tesco F&F. I tried them on and they're comfortable. £20. Should be ok for jogging?
Instead of tights, I bought thermal long johns to go under the joggers. Do you think that's a good idea? I've got some old t shirts and sweatshirts I can use for layers.
I'll just need to buy a hoodie with top pocket, preferably waterproof, and maybe a woolly hat.
I would have preferred to walk into sports direct and buy better looking clothes but of course, that's not possible at the moment.
