We runners can converse for hours on the following topics:
1. Shoes - types, what works, what does not and why, which are the best, what sorts do you have and how many pairs. Light trail versus heavy trail;
2. Nutrition;
3. Injuries - current and historic;
4. How to avoid a 'Paula Radcliffe' during a run;
5. Your next event - when, where and how far.
Shoe talk accounts for more than 95% of any runner conversation...
