All the blogs that I’ve read in the past few days tell me that new runners need to buy new shoes. So I went to Fleet Feet near my house today. A very young, but nice guy measured my feet and then had me walk back and forth. He said there were 3 different shoes that should work for me. I tried all 3 but ended up with the Saucony Ride 8 shoes. They felt like I wasn’t wearing any shoes so I figured that was a good sign.
I also needed a jog bra, but the young man passed me off to his female colleague for that one. Moving Comfort FIONA by Brooks Running with adjustable straps was the 3rd one that I tried on.
Now I’m ready to run.
