🏃‍♀️ Customer Story: From the Forest to the Finish Line in Altras

Customer Story, Skedaddle Speyside | Scotland

When I signed up for the local 10K trail run, I knew I needed something that could handle the terrain—mud, roots, rocks, and all. I popped into Skedaddle Speyside, looking for advice more than anything, and walked out with a pair of Altra Lone Peaks.

I'd never worn zero-drop shoes before, but after a chat in the shop and trying a few pairs, I felt confident giving them a go.

And wow—what a difference. The wide toe box gave my feet space to move naturally, and I felt super stable over uneven ground. No blisters, no sore knees, and most importantly: no slipping on those mossy downhill corners!

Race day was unreal—crisp air, damp forest trails, and a quiet confidence in every step. I came in just under my goal time, feeling stronger than ever. Safe to say, I’m an Altra convert now.

Big thanks to the team at Skedaddle for their patience, trail-running tips, and getting me in the right shoe. Can’t wait for the next one!
