Missed by that much

Ran today with my new shoes and had another crack at working out the Nike GPS, unfortunately I didn't figure it out to till the end of my run.When I checked out the distances on line I found out that I had run 4.95km, missing the 5km mark by 50m. DOH, never mind another chance will come at tommorows Matilda Bay run.Pleased to report the new shoes where fantastic.

New Shoes

Today, Tracy and I went to Runners world and got some new shoes. Just going to a shop called Runners world made me feel like a runner. I even took my old running shows so they could check wear patterns. I was really worried that the lady would take one look at my shoes, conclude that I run like a spastic and kick me to KMart for some KT26's, but she was really encouraging and let us try on heaps of pairs till we found the right ones.
Of course the downside to having new shoes is one less excuse to run further and faster. I haven't tested them on the road yet, but after work tommorow, watch out for the Fatboy pounding the mean streets of Lathlain.
