I got new running shoes yesterday. I did some research and then went to the store and talked to a guy who runs 40 miles per week. All of my research points to Asics for regular gait (I don't over or under pronate).
WOW, what a difference they made tonight. My feet didn't hurt at all and my knees even hurt less than normal. I can't wait to try a long run/walk and see how they do. I'm glad I listened to my friends who said that most of my problems were in my shoes (other than the problems in my head - which shoes won't help).
Trained with Gina tonight, still burned a ton of calories, but didn't want to cry the entire time - it was good.

About this blog
I am a 30 something year old woman looking to lose weight and get back in shape. I hope that this blog will provide inspiration to me and to others. I am much more motivated to workout when I can make it funny and glean some humorous stories out of it - these will mostly be self-deprecating. Please, I beg of you, post comments with your own funny stories or success stories or complaints about exercising or whatever. Just FYI, I work-out at a great gym in Anthem, Arizona called SWEAT.
