It’s my birthday week and guess what I want for a gift? That’s right, running shoes. My hubby doesn’t think that new running shoes
sounds very exciting, but he doesn’t understand. Nor do I understand why he
needs so many ski jackets. I have two –
an old one and a not so old one. They
work great for me. He has many more.One pair of neutral (no stability) road shoes that are light and fast and feel very slick in the rain. They are about ready for an upgrade.
One pair of stability shoes that have a tendency to jam a
couple toes. These are bright and pretty
and also about ready for an upgrade.
One pair with lots of cushioning and better tread for dirt
roads and trails. Also on the “needs
replaced” list.
Three more pairs that have been retired to yard work,
camping, and hiking duty.
Okay, so maybe I can have more empathy for his ski jacket
fetish. He has one for blizzards, one
for warm days, one for windy days, another for super cold days … If I get a new
pair of shoes, I may need to get him a new coat – just to keep it even.
I am hoping to make a trip to The Pulse or Shu’s Idaho Running Company in the next few days. They
are my favorite running stores. They
both give great service and can help you find the right show for you. I promise
to post pictures of my fancy new shoes once I have obtained them!
