Dear new shoes,

Thank you for cushioning my feet during my run.  I know you look exactly the same as my last 2 pairs of shoes (and remarkably similar to the two pairs before you), but somehow I've got a feeling that you and I are going places together. 

Love,

Tracy

Congratulations and best wishes to you and your new shoes. May you have a long happy life together.

Also, I sometimes run past my house and then back in order to get the right mileage.

Congrats on the new shoes! I have been known to do some silly looking parking lot laps to even up my mileage. Garmins make us goofy, don't they?

Nice run in your new shoes! And I bet they do take you to some nice places!

Lucky you for getting similar shoes, too. I need some new shoes, and they don't make my old model . . . so, if I can't find them as clearance on the internet, I'll have to go thru the rigors of shoe shopping!

Hey Tracy, I see what you were talking about with the goals. Looks like you're getting in some great mileage - are you doing a race this weekend?
