    I have several pairs of very well-cushioned trainers. My go-to trainer at the moment is the Hoka Bondi 8, whilst they can be around £150 on average, however, sportsshoes.com usually has good sales from time to time.

    My 2nd pair of trainers is the Asics Gel Nimbus 25, I recently bought these from Amazon for £107, retail they are around £175, Asics and Sportsshoes.com have a sale on at the moment for around £122 a pair. In fact, any Asics trainers with the FF Blast + foam have great cushioning.

    And my third pair of trainers is the Nike Invincible 2, these can be purchased for around £100 or less if you shop around.

    I have cerebral Palsy, so need to wear comfortable trainers, whilst I ain't rich by any means, I don't mind paying a higher price for comfort which you cannot always put a price on it.

    And finally, before I purchase any new trainers I always check out the YouTube channel Hes Kicks, he does videos such as the 10 most comfortable trainers every 6 months or so, I've bought the above 3 pairs after watching his reviews and so far so good his reviews are spot on.


    Hope this helps.

    To run like Mo Farah you need to get yourself some EPO.

    I ran in Nike Pegasus 38's for a couple of years, but they were getting pricier.
    Decided to try Reebok Floatride 5 as they had good reviews, picked up a pair for £48 and have been really pleased with them, I've trained and run a couple of half marathons in them and found them really comfy. Frustratingly they were offering free postage over £25 which has gone up to £50 for Black Friday - but it is free returns for 60 days.
