New Shoes

I was thinking it would be time for new running shoes soon.  My feet feel like they are hitting concrete barefoot every step I make while running.  I've put about 350 miles on them since I started running in them last May!  Yah, me!  It's definitely time to start breaking in a new pair.

I did some shopping online the past few days.  I found my style and size of running shoe on clearance at Zappos and Running Warehouse.  I wish I would have found the Running Warehouse sale first because it was definitely cheaper there.  So, I basically got two pairs of new shoes for the price of one pair at a local running store.  I'm so excited.  I should be set for 2012 now!

Brinkley and I ran 3 miles yesterday.  It was good to hit the trail again but man oh man, I'm done with winter.  DONE!  I waited all day for the temps to creep up.  We didn't freeze by any means but it's the mental battle that goes along with running in the cold.  The first mile always sucks until my body heats up.

I'm far off my training schedule.  The last few weeks were a complete wash.  I don't feel even slightly bad about it.  I will just keep running and running and see where it takes me.  This upcoming Saturday I'm running a 5k with my friend, Bryn!!  We're either chasing a Yeti or being chased by one.  Either way, I'm sure we'll get pictures!
