Bought new running shoes (isn't that the cure all?) and ate a bunch of stuff that I shouldn't have -- but I was starving and thought I was making a smart selection but everything came drenched in better -- DANG! The asphalt pie was worth it though.

I have never ran in Asics before. I'll test these babies out tomorrow. Oh yeah ... I bought some Superfeet insoles as well. They were more pricey than I expected, hopefully they will be worth it.

If they cost a lot....doesn't that mean they will be great! Good luck on your run

I wanted to go to WRC for their sale...but too busy today.

Hope you like your Asics.

Asics are the only shoe that feel comfortable on my feet. I think you'll like them.

From Rhett on Fri, Jul 09, 2010 at 23:28:52 from 184.10.154.170

Asics are usually my shoe of choice, but just today I received a new pair of Adidas Star Ride 2 which are a neutral plus shoe, so I will have a lot of cushion when I get back to running. Like you I was going for the buy the new shoe thing to make me feel better about not being able to run. It worked pretty well. As I sported them around the house tonight, I felt like a runner again.

I hope your injury is feeling a little better today. I'm glad to see you are behaving and not running.

that's what injured me and that's what will cure me (NEW shoes). Wish I knew then I was making the wrong choice. They were saucony grids (riders?) zeroed out. Now they are trash. I currently run in ascics cumulus, newest model. I like the older models better, wore four years of them. Dang. So now I will try mizunos. Happy cure!! : D

Sounds like I need to go buy me some new shoes for my running blues :)

Rhett...you make me laugh...even in your injured state you are still faster than me

From Kathie on Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 10:51:15 from 63.248.105.188

From Smooth on Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 14:45:03 from 174.23.191.197

How did your run with the Chumps go? How was the garage sale? Miss you soooo much this morning!!! LOVE YOU!!!

Asphalt pie??? WHERE IS MINE?

From timp on Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 19:22:23 from 66.167.51.119

Ok - I'm just thinkin out loud here, but what the bleep is asphalt pie, ladies?

From Kelli on Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 21:48:48 from 71.219.99.30

Oh, Timp, you are kidding, right?????

You need to go to Winger's and get some!!!

From timp on Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 23:17:32 from 66.167.51.119

Kelli thanks for filling me in on that. Dang- I'm in sugar shock just from the picture.

Send me a bit - It's a bit of a drive from the ATL. :)

From Kelli on Sat, Jul 10, 2010 at 23:38:11 from 71.219.99.30

Hmmm....I did not Google to see which states have Wingers. So, let me give you this instead:

Sounds SUPER EASY!

From Teena Marie on Sun, Jul 11, 2010 at 11:10:50 from 174.52.45.85

Thanks all! Verdict on the Asics (Allie, they are the asics gel landreths) isn't it yet. Need to give them a few more runs and see how my body responds. :)

MMMMMMM ... asphalt pie, I want another piece. And Tim, homemade asphalt pie is way better anyway. :)

From timp on Sun, Jul 11, 2010 at 12:55:24 from 66.167.51.119

wow - my family would love me forever if I made that for them :)

thanks for the recipe Kelli!

From Kelli on Sun, Jul 11, 2010 at 14:04:09 from 71.219.99.30

Anytime! I hope you DO make it for them, they will love it.
