because I got new shoes!!!
After researching online for what seems like forever, I finally found some shoes to go try on. I ventured out after work to this cute family owned sports shop called 1379 sports. I was looking forward to having someone check out my feet, look at how I walked, and pick out a shoe that would fit to a T. I was there for about 30 minutes and tried on three pairs of shoes. I ended up going with these. I love the bright colors and how light they feel. I didn't necessarily like the price, but I don't think you can put a price on comfort and the wellbeing of my aching feet!
I found out that my old shoes were a size and half too small, yikes! No wonder my feet were in so much pain! Turns out running shoes need to be one size bigger than your everyday shoes. I'm so thankful for finding that out and I'm so curious as to why I never went to a real shoe store to begin with. I'm so anxious to try these suckers out and to see what a difference they make.
On another note, the person at the shoe store said I was developing a bunion on my right foot...SAD DAY! Has anyone else suffered from a bunion? I don't think mine is in the danger zone yet, but I'd like to keep it under control. Damn these wide feet of mine!
Happy Wednesday friends!
