got to have you

I just got back from a run and started flipping through a Road Runner sports catalogue that was sitting on the counter.  (Who knows how long it has been sitting there because mail just sits on the island and rarely gets opened or trashed in our house, yeah, we are those people).  What did I happen to come across that I now have to have. My beloved Asic Gel Kayano 15's... in PINK!
Hello beautiful!  :)  My husband will kill me if I buy another pair of running shoes though. Especially since I have a perfectly good pair of Brooks on my feet right now and the red pair of kayano's sitting by the door.  I may have to buy them under the radar.  Good thing I'm home all next week and happens to be traveling ;)  

Today's run went exceptionally well.  I wasn't feeling good all day and really lacking any sort of motivation.  Went for an easy 4 since I haven't run since Sunday  (only was able to do cross-training while in Texas).  My easy 4 happened to be at a 8:50 average!!! Haven't seen  an 8 on the screen  in awhile and I have to say it feels good.

those are some cute shoes... i think you can pull it off under the radar ;) Nice job on the speedy run today, sounds like it was one of those 'feel-good' runs... awesome.

PINK!

LOL, my husband would never notice if I got new shoes. He only finds out when he reads about it on my blog.

Great job on the run!

They are pretty! If I added another pair of sneakers to my collection I don't think my husband would know.

Great run! Those shoes are hott! Just hide them in your closet!

I'm totally getting the pink Nimbuseseseses (never know the actual plural of that, so that should cover all bases) when my current ones are donzo. It's what's (partially) motivating me to get the miles in! And I'm the same way w/the mail pile, only it sits on my kitchen table. Which tells you how often we sit down there for meals. :)

Funny - in our house, ut's hubby always wanting more shoes and ME putting my foot down. :p

Those are beauties!

I'd be all over those shoes. (Says the owner of TWO pink Asics shoes in current rotation.

Nice work on the "easy" run. Got to love when teh numbers reward your hard work.

Good job on that run girl. Looks like a little time off was in order.

Cute shoes! You should definitly get them.

Chris said...

Sounds like a great run, and the shoes are way cute. I'm pretty disciplined about only buying shoes I need [kids in private school -- kills us!]. If I had a little more disposable income... I'd be all over those 15s!
