Aldi - running gear

Aldi is getting running gear in next week. Trainers for £20 and other bits and bobs of clothing for £10 - £20. Can't beat it. I'll be there! Saves shelling out loads of cash just for a designer label. I know the best running shoes are properly fitted ones, but off the shelf Nikes cost £50+ and they can't be that much better.

    FYI, running shoes are worth every penny if you plan on running a lot. Proper shoes will prevent injury and stand up to the miles, where cheap sneakers can't. Now if you don't plan on running, and you just want sneakers to go to the gym/cross train with, than go for it! I wear a lot of cheap running clothes from discount stores, but will not cheap out on running shoes! Btw I run a lot, I did 15 miles today!

    What? I do not understand. We have a workout uniform here. somehow it was decided on mass that every girl will buy karrimore pink and black outfits from sports direct. Every single one!
    We look like an army.. a very sweaty army

    agree about running and shoes, do not try to buy womens trainers because they are pink and match the uniform, oh no, you must buy ugly man shoes because you have massive feet like a man! :sad:

    I just worked out that you are in the US aren't you so no individual outfit for me!
