They just arrived today. I couldn't wait. I immediately slipped them on my feet and they feel great. I know I am not supposed to wear them except for running but damn I like these shoes.
Now, I didn't get them just because they are pretty (although that was nice). My old shoes are pretty beat up and this is the next model up from my old shoes. They are the New Balance 767.
Hopefully this will help motivate me to keep going. There have been a few mornings where during the last mile of the run I think "really? 13 miles? without being chased by bears or mountain lions?" Then I soon remember that I have 12 weeks of training left before the race and I should be able to pull this rabbit out of
"Runaway" mentioned getting red in the face while running. After my run this morning I went to the bathroom at the gym to weigh myself. OMG! I looked like a hot mess! My face was beet red and I had sweat dripping from my ears. Not kidding - can ears really sweat?
R.I.P. NB766s
PS - while watching Forest Gump last night I heard a good running song that most of you probably have on your ipod - "Go Your Own Way" by Fleetwood Mac. The song is about leaving a bad relationship but you can totally make it about running. :)
