Shoes
No Change this week. Boo Hoo. It's making me grumpy.
On my last run something in my foot started bothering me. I think I need to get a new pair of sneakers. You're supposed to replace them every 500 miles (How do people AFFORD that?) and I used mine for walking all last summer. Normally I Pronate outwards. The souls of my steel toe shoes are VERY worn on the outside back edge after wearing them for a few years.
I'm wondering though if since I lost weight or if its just when I run if I pronnate inwards as my foot bothers me when it rolls inwardish and I could run on the outside edge OK. So I have to go to one of those snooty running shoe stores so they can watch me walk/run.
The problem is running sneakers aren't cheap and there isn't anything wrong with my old ones... I mean they look fine on the outside and everything so I'm really resistant to shelling out obscene amounts for new ones, but I know the right sneakers can help prevent injury... and since I'm hauling around an extra 70 pounds still I need to take all precautions.
Last time I went to fleet feet, but as far as I can remember they didn't have a treadmill for testing... so I'm going to investigate a bit.
Running shoes though are about the LAST thing I want to spend money on. I hate sneakers.
