Gee whiz, where is everybody?<br><br>
I got in a nice 3 miles of constant running (30 minutes) sandwiched in between w/u and c/d walking for a total of 4 miles this morning. It was a great morning for it, too (low humidity and a little breezy). I'm committed to icing my hip 2X per day now. I'm so scared of re-injury and it feels a little "wierd". Not really hurting, but not normal either.<br><br>
TW, I'm glad you're liking the new shoes.<br><br>
[rant]I went to the running store yesterday because I wanted to try on a Saucony stability shoe. I've been wearing Asics, but the GT 2120's <i>are</i> much stiffer than the 2110's. (Which is why I'd had my 2120's in the box since I ran in them a couple times after I got them in March). I wanted to see how a "comparable" Saucony felt, but our running store doesn't carry a singe Saucony stability shoe. (They have a neutral and a motion control...) The guy at the store was a bit of a jerk, telling me that the Asics 2120 was the same as the 2110. He was dismissive when I told him it didn't feel like it on my foot. Then he proceeded to recommend a shoe that cost $165! So I came home and ordered a pair of Sauconys on line. To hell with supporting the local stores! - in my case, anyway.[/rant]<br><br>
Liam, since you suggested this place should feel like home, I felt free to b!#ch. <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Smile"> (My poor family...)
