Oh, Rizzoli & Isles! #VFF-FAIL

Aug 23, 2010 19:36

Nuh uh, show. You do not get to diss my VFF-BFFs in that cavalier fashion. Also, it's so not in character for Isles to try something without researching the topic. And if she had done due diligence, she would have known not to jump into running long distances in them without giving her feet time to get acclimated. Depending on the type of footware ( Read more... )

Hell hath no fury like Geek Outrage! :) (But I agree, it is OOC for Maura not to properly research using them first.)

So the ones in the photos are fake? I hope so, 'cause they're hella uglier than the VFFs I've seen people wearing.

Yeah ... No dissing my VFFs. Though going back to the scene, Maura does mention that her feet aren't strong enough to run barefoot. So all is forgiven. But still, the show generally made fun of it, and they were stupid enough to use fakes while doing so. Way wrong. The karma is a bitch part is that they probably overpaid for the fakes compared to the real stuff.

Have you seen a lot of people wearing them so far?

Not a lot, only a couple people, and always the blacks ones: After all, it is New York!

You're funny. I wondered if you'd object. Who'd have thought you'd be a running guru a few years ago?

Yeah, the running guru who's completely slacked off on running. The most I have done is about 2 blocks. I plan to start again in the gym from tomorrow.

How's your running going? Also, you should totally give VFFs a shot :-P

My running is going pretty well. I'm training and fundraising for the NYC marathon in November, so I'm following a more intense schedule than I have since 2006.

give VFFs a shot
I still don't know if I could tolerate the splits between my toes! I'm a little bit weird about my feet. Plus, I don't want to shake anything up right now and risk getting hurt. Maybe next year.

Is 2 blocks actually 2 blocks or is it two miles? Get on it! Do you always run in the gym or have you found places to run outside there?
