It's all about the shoes


In just 2 short days (oh my!), I will run my first 5k, the Predators Fangtastic 5K. Am I nervous? Naw...I'm petrified! But, one thing I do have going for me - I bought new shoes about 2 weeks ago. And, from what I hear from seasoned runners, the shoes help a lot. Get ready Nashville 'cause all you are going to see is the blue streaks off these sneakers (ok, I know...its wishful thinking, but can't a girl hope?!).

"The Blue Streak" That's what I'm gonna call you. I'm so proud of you. I believe shoes will make a difference. Wes just bought some more and he ran 10 1/2 miles on the treadmill yesterday. He's going to try the 1/2 marathon this Saturday. His knee felt a lot better with new shoes. I can't wait to see your trophy. ;-)

The shoes will definitely help but its your "passion" for this new adventure that will help you finish the race! Cheering my lungs out in MI!!! SO proud of you! I Love You!!

It's true! Shoes are your most important piece of equipment...and unfortunately, the most expensive! But it's worth it when you find the perfect pair :)
