Penny for your thoughts

A friend sent me this article The painful truth about trainers: Are running shoes a waste of money? (you'll have to scroll up since it links to the bottom of the article, sorry I tech challenged)

Perhaps, I'll run in my old running shoes tomorrow and see how I fare...

On a complete side note, I am loving the purpleness of the Asics GEL Nimbus 10

Training has begun

I started my official training plan yesterday. By official training plan , I mean I did a long run yesterday. By long run I mean 5 miles. You gotta start somewhere. All I can say is thank goodness I have 6 months until my half marathon.

Back at it

Just running 3 miles or so a couple days of the week. Besides having a vacation hangover, I 've been planning a Candyland themed sleepover for my daughter's 13th birthday which will take place tomorrow. ( if you get bored you can read random posts about the preparations at The House of Fowler)

But come Sunday once all the sugar is cleared out of the house, it's time to get serious. Make a plan and stick to it. Plus I will have one, if not two, houses on the market. I imagine there will be a lot stress fueled runs in my future.

Vacation

Very little running being done.Because when it doesn't look like this, then the wind is horrible. UGH!!


Be back next week
