Running results in pain

[Slumdog]

Just started back on the fitness after a 4 month break. Its amazing how difficult it is to get back to how fit you previously were.

Anyway, after a short running session this week, the following day the bases of both my feet were aching so much that i could barely walk. The same goes for the hips feeling extremely tight.

Anyone out there know what is wrong?

The 4 month break was too long?

Try swimming or cycling. If you want to carry on running go to a *good* running shoe shop where they will analyse your running and fit you with suitably shaped running shoes.

Nature is so cruel. It takes 6 months to get fit and 2 weeks to lose it.

Crap shoes maybe?

I only use the best asics, anything cheap and I get problems.

I will have to look into some trainers I think. Stretching wise I am normally Ok as I have done a lot of yoga but it still hurts today purely when in motion to get tp the stretching point. i cant be that unfit.
