Please spec me some running shoes :-)

Ok so been running since Christmas. Not doing massive distance yet. I'm up to about 4km. Currently weighing in at 16 stones exactly, large build, short legs. Not really designed for running. But i'm enjoying it. My current trainers are falling apart, so thought id replace with something more suited to running.

I do 90% on road running, and started a bit of off road. Laid track, so packed stones. Which in my knackered trainers hurt when landing on pointed up stones.

Budget, ideally less than £60. Though could go over that if the majority vote goes that way.

So i'm after a running trainer, mainly for road use, something suited to the heavier bloke. Absorb some of the impact off my knee's.

Suggestions? I've been looking at Merrells so far and a pair of Scarpa Ignite?

Now that is good advice! So just got to run in front of some people.... I tend to run in the dark! So first challenge.

Many thanks for the help. I'll check out Sportlink

Yeah I saw the Lunarglide as well. They were suggested as another good one for larger weighted gents.

Heading over to sportlink this weekend. Just across the road from the Vets I use so very handy!
