You Can’t Buy Pretty Shoes

by Tiff

Happy Friday!  I know the post is a little late today, but Kevin and I were out last night, meaning no time to prep it up and edit/upload my pictures.  More deets on last night will come tomorrow.  For now, I want to review a few new-to-me things.

First up – I finally own a running skirt, and I am soooooo happy with my purchase.  It’s the Abby Run Skort by Asics.  I had a successful three-mile Thursday in it, and I’m pleased.  The shorts rode up about half an inch or an inch, but then it stayed put.  Works for me!

I need to start taking pic BEFORE running.

I’ve only run in my new shoes once so far, but I really liked them.  Gotta’ love that cushy new feel of new kicks. I can’t say that I love the color, but that’s no biggie.  Dad taught me years ago that you can’t by running shoes for looks.

Dad looked out for me when I first started running.  He bought me good shoes (not the cute ones I wanted).  Then once those got old, he did a ton of research and analyzed where they had worn the most so that he could make a recommendation for my next pair.  (Sadly, those weren’t cute either.)  I later had to do PT for runner’s knee, and the therapist recommended the exact shoe my dad had picked out for me.  Thanks pops!

oats

Lastly – I’m enjoying my protein oats now before I get to work.  They’re raspberry vanilla.  Whenever I eat raspberries I also think of my dad for no other reason than he likes them.

Now you’re practically best friends with the guy, right?
