Entry: New Shoes! Monday, January 17, 2005



My feet are have a weird ache in a weird place after yesterday's treadmill run.  When I flex my foot (mostly my big toe actually) I get this weird tugging sensation between my big toe and my ankle (on top of my foot, not the bottom).  I post a topic about it at coolrunning.com, but nobody has responded.

I am hoping that my shoes were just too old.  I had been thinking about getting a new pair of shoes for a month or so, but I'm low on expendable cash.  Anyhow, Sunday was the impetus, so today I bought some shoes from a place close to my job.  It's Running Ambitions in Lake Zurich.  Unfortunately, the didn't have my usual Grid Omni's in the ultimate stability version, but I was curious about trying out something different, so I ended up with some New Balance's.  I'll have to edit the model in after I get home as the shoes are in the trunk of my car.  They seem to be stiffer and heavier than my Saucony's, but it's possible that I could use more motion control.

Hopefully, I can get on the treadmill tomorrow morning and test them out.  Hopefully referring to my mysterious foot thing.
