I luv running even more now!!!

Monday, February 27, 2012

Hi all! This past Saturday, i went shopping for new running shoes, it has been a long time coming,lol. Any who I find some on line that I really, really wanted but when I got to shoe carnival they did not have them. I was upset at first but than realized there is another shoe carnival i can check out that is bigger. I got to the bigger shoe carnival and I searched all the aisle and still could not find what I found on line. That is when I had the conversation with my self(yes i do this daily..lol)and it went like this: I really wanted those shoes on line.....hmmm but I do wanna run tomorrow because it is supposed to be perfect running weather...hmmm but the one's on line said that they were specially for long distance runners, I could order them on line but than i would have to ware my old shoes to run tomorrow....Well let me see if i can find something here that i like just as much and than i can break them in tomorrow. ....but if i don't find any thing i like than i will just order the ones on line and run on the treadi tomorrow. So I found some Adidas shoes that I really liked and I tried them on and they felt nice and the box said that they are for runners that run trails. To make a long story short I got them and I took them out this past Sunday and OMG!!!!! I felt like I was floating on air the whole 5 mile run. It was just amazing how good i felt. I was having such a good time that when my runkeeper updated me with my distance and time I was like dang that 50 mins went by fast. It was the easiest 5 miler that i have ever run. These new shoes make me love running even more than before, which i did not think was possible but come to find out it is. Now all im waiting on is for day light savings to kick in so than i can run out side EVERYDAY if I wanna. Not only do i luv running out side but this will shut my neighbors up and i will not have to hear THEIR MOUTHS!!!!! The last time my neighbors asked me why I run, i told them it is hobby of mine and he looked at me like i was speaking Spanish. it is a passion of mine and its part of my life, well actually it is my life. He still did not get it but he dose not have to get it because I do and its my life!! I LIVE TO RUN AND RUN TO LIVE!!!!!

Thank you for listening!!

    It is funny how shoes can make that much of a difference. I have been there and the shoe really does make all the difference.
