Today was a good day. My parents are back in town from Florida it was nice to have them back for a while ecspecially to help with babysitting. I went out shopping with my mom and sister. My mom was buying christmas presents for us. We were looking for some new running shoes for me. We were actually looking for ones without mesh for running in the snow. We could not find any so we ended up at running spectialty store to ask them. They told us that all running shoes come with mesh. I decided to go ahead and get fitted for some shoes at the store. The customer service was incredible. One person sat down with you looked at your foot used a palm pilot to enter information about it and it calculated a good shoe fit for you. I was surprised to find out I'm really a size 8 I had always bought size 7. Anyway so he got a pair of shoes and then I ran a little outside to determine if I have any pronation. He said I do have some in my right foot. That could account for my knee and leg pain that has troubled me in that leg. So I got a pair of shoes with more support to prevent the pronation. I got a pair that was a pretty tight fit but i liked they way they felt. So I went back to my parents house my mom let me test the shoes out for a test run even thought it's not christmas yet. I ran around my parents neighborhood. There are a lot more hills in their neighborhood. I liked that the loop I was running was a lot bigger it kept me a lot more interested. My shins are sore from the hills. I liked the shoes I had them laced up a little too tight my toes fell asleep. I hope there not to tight in general they were exspensive. My right leg definitely felt a lot better after the run. Only three more runs to do with my old shoes then I'll get my new ones on Sunday,
