SHOOZ again!

sorry, i can't help it, i'm obsessed with the shoes. i've decided that good shoes are the secret to my success and bad ones are the reasons for my FAILZ. (this is in lieu of taking responsibility for my slackness in training....)

anyway, i wasn't sure about the Asics i bought at PR pre-cherry blossom so I went to georgetown running company and tried on a bunch more shoes, including the newer edition of the Nikes that I (and Amber!) had been running in before, some Mizunos and some more Asics. This salesman was a Real African Runner, so I beleebed ebery word he said.

And.... i bought the same Asics again. thinking they were a different model. *slaps forehead*

(in my defense, they looked different- different years! but really.... same shoe....slightly different lacing pattern, but... same shoe. sigh.)

I guess this means that this really is the shoe for me though!

  1. I got new shooz the other day. The girl put me in a neutral shoe. I've never been in a neutral shoe before!!! Of course I havent run in them but once so I have no idea if I like them or not.

  3. Nope, never returned them! now i just have 2 pairs of the same shoe. I think i'll just keep them both, even though that puts me out $300 in nothing but SHOOOOES. But! i'm wearing pair #1 around today and they feel goooood so, i think it's a sound investment.


    good job on running today! *high fives* i did elliptical in greg's basement and it was hard too. it said only did 1.4 miles! Ugh!
