It is amazing what a good pair of running shoes can do. I went to a shoe clinic put on by Team in Training, and learned how to look for a good pair of running shoes ( as opposed to the cheapest pair Target has!) The difference in my knees is amazing. Of course the difference in my bank account is too. I have no problem spending money on horse shoes, but I had a hard time doing it for myself. So far though, it is paying off. I don't hurt when I am done running.
My training is going well. Unfortunately, I have been hit by a miserable cold, so running in 90 + degree heat is torture. I kept my poor husband up last night by coughing so much. I feel miserable this morning from coughing all night. At least I got an ab workout, I suppose.
Last night was the first group training run I was able to go on with the team. It was nice to run with other people, and also to run in a different spot! I think I am going to enjoy this. It is hard to believe though, that I will be running over 20 miles in just a few months. Okay, I'll be realistic running and walking.
On another note, I went to my first horse show in five years this past weekend, and had a great time. I showed my moms horse and got a couple of good ribbons. Maybe before he goes home, I can do some bigger horse shows.
