I got a pair of new running shoes today. They're the brand spankin' new version of Nike Structure Triax. The same shoes I've been using for the past few years. I know, no big deal right? Wrong. I LOVE getting new running shoes. The fact that these are the newly designed version is icing on the cake. Ever since I was a little girl, I've loved new shoes. Not just any new shoes. New athletic shoes. Give me a pair of the latest stlye of casual shoes and I won't turn them away, but they don't bring the excitement new atheletic shoes do. Weird huh?.
I think new running shoes are like a new start. I can run just a little bit faster in them. They have a little more bounce. Can anyone relate to not wanting to get new sneakers dirty? Like the dirt will ruin them and then they won't help me run as fast? I know, there are some serious therapy issues here. I'm not worried about that just yet. Right now I'm going to take my brand new running shoes and give them a try on the treadmill. (I wouldn't want to chance getting them dirty by running outside!)
