I really love food. Apparently, too much food can be a bad thing. I hear exercise can counteract that problem. I run so I can eat. Thus, I love to run.

30 Day Running Challenge

Day 8.  Show us a picture of your running shoes! What are they and why do you like them?

Asics.  They are the brand of shoes that I felt fit the best and were in my budget.  However, I am definitely in need of a new pair.  The green shoes are size 9 and the pink shoes are size 8-1/2.  The green were feeling too big, so I bought the pink.  Now the pink give me blisters if I wear them on long runs.  So, I wear the pink on short runs and the green on long runs.  But, now the back of the green are worn down, so if I have my low rider socks on, it can chafe the back of my heel.

Really, both of these shoes are too worn down, but I will continue to wear them for a bit until new shoes are in the budget.  Gotta get the kids ready for school first:) 

But, even with them both showing age, I still feel comfortable running in them and I don’t feel like they are really giving me any issues.  (other than the obvious blister issue that can be prevented)

I guess I should take that tag off my green shoes from my 10k last weekend…:P
