Pretty in Pink

(workout: tried to run--made it .3 miles. Lovely. 60 minutes of power yoga instead. Bleh)

Let's hope my new shoes can kick this non running habit I've developed.




I loves them. They have gel cushioning--which is awesome for SP's hip--but has yet to make a difference in her calf.

But, they're cute. And pink. And currently, my biggest fear is ruining them at my trail run next month.

FYI, it's in exactly 1 month. From today. August 29th.

Eeek.

ETA: Ran 5.1 miles at lunch!! Yippee! The first 2 were painful and hard, but, afterwards--no pain!! Maybe I should have just powered through from the start? (yeah, let's pretend that's not true, k?)

I love my pink shoes. Sadly, they have yet to be used for running - just a few hours of walking and lots of moving. But I have high hopes and the color makes me smile!

What about training with the elleptical or running in the pool? Have you seen a sports injury specialist?

I've been reading your blog for a couple of months. I wanted to tell you that I used to be a runner when I was younger. I stopped around the time I went to college. Reading your blog has inspired me to start again :) Hopefully it will go well... I hope to start tomorrow morning!

PS Your new shoes are too cute!
