New Kicks
My sneakers died. I was in denial for a week, but I could deny it no longer. About mile 10 of my half marathon the ball of my foot started hurting which was very unusual because I never have foot pain while running. I thought maybe it was because I was running on the road and not the crushed granite trail I was used to. But as the next week went on and everytime I put my sneakers on and tried to run, there was instant pain, I knew it was time to replace. I really love my sneakers, I wear the Brooks Axiom 3. These were the first pair of sneakers that I felt were perfect for me and the way I run ( I overpronate a little). I expected them to last a little longer but I did get a good amount of mileage out of them so I am not complaining. I went to the sporting goods store and was looking around at other shoes, but as soon as I tried on a new pair of Axiom 3s and ran around a little in the store, I knew I was going to buy the same sneaks (this is a first for me). I hope the next gen is just as comfortable on my foot. I can’t wait to run in them today.
