New Shoes and a New Goal....

There is nothing quite like getting a new pair of running shoes!  Something I should probably do more often! There is just that little extra bounce in my stride!  My brand is New Balance - I have been a big fan ever since I ran the Chicago Marathon, back in 1998.

So with my new shoes and needing a goal to get me through the rest of the summer, I signed up to do the Chicago Monster Half Marathon  www.chicagomonster.org!  Some people tell me - piece of cake - you ran a great 10 miler!  Well this extra 3.1 miles is about an extra 30 minutes of running time for me and that is if I can keep my 10 minute a mile pace!  Results to follow after October 29th!
