And I am indeed... Guess who didn't go out to run this morning ? ME !
Let me first write here the excuses that I spent all morning finding.
I woke up at 6 am, too early ! So I thought I'd get back to sleep just for a while... Next thing I know, my flatmate woke me up, at 8:15 ! Too bad :( it is too late to run. But anyway the weather is shitty today anyway. And I think I am still a little tired from yesterday... ok OK I KNOW it is not physically possible... But anyway, I did not go and that's it. I am prepared to deal with Guilt all day long, bring it !
So as I cant write about running today, I am going to write about the most important thing when you love running : your shoes ! I LOVE SHOES. They are MY thing, some have clothes, some have earrings, I HAVE SHOES. And when I first started running, I did not understand why I had to spend so much money on ugly shoes... Once I ran just one little time in Converse (don't laugh...), I got it. Ok, I was ready to spend as much as it took.
I went to a running shop, and let the team advise me. I ended up with these ones, except they were blue. I KNOW they're ugly but they were sooooo comfy.
.
They are shoes with no actual sewing inside, so no blister ! I ran for a year in these shoes and never had one little problem. But I made a huge mistake on the day of my first marathon... I put plasters on all my toes, to prevent from blisters. One plaster I did not put real flat. AOUCHH !
Anyway, I needed to buy new shoes. So I went to the same little running shop. And this time I told them I wanted Spira shoes. And I wasn't reluctant to pay the price for it. I know now it is worth every cent. I have been running with these shoes for about a month, and they seem perfectly fine ! Good choice again ;) Go Spira !
