Theresa - Day 1...Prep

I just brought home my new custom fit running shoes! They are Brooks, Defyance 3, size 9.5. I couldn't believe how much bigger my running shoe is than normal shoes, but the salesman said that for comfort and room for swelling, 9.5 was my size.


I also got quite an education on socks too. Did you know that you are not suppose to wear cotton anything? I had no idea. All these years I thought "cotton breathes."Well now I am in the know and purchased two pairs of DryNami, Air-conditioning fabric system socks. 


So...Tonight is the night. First run. My goal is two miles. 

13.1...it can be done!!

    Yay! And I KNOW about the socks, right? I had no clue. I got my education in shoe fitting and socks before our Komen walk last year. Crazy!

    OMG, you are going to love those socks. I did a marathon 3 years ago and started wearing the Balega socks...you will never purchase crappy socks again. :)

    I'm thinking about signing up for the Princess Half, too - maybe you'll be my motivation. Can't wait to hear about your progress! Good luck, girl!
