Shiny New Shoes
May. 31st, 2012 07:25 pmI resisted for a long time, but I have to say they are awesome.

I still like my Zems for agility, but they are not durable enough for distance running (especially on pavement) and I am not hardcore enough to run several miles barefoot. Plus I am pretty sure you have to wear shoes for cross country. ;) But I was getting so tired of running in my tennis shoes. With all the barefootedness I do, the way normal tennis shoes force you to run (heel striking) just feels so unnatural to me--which it is, of course. So I am pretty excited about these. I think it will be a really easy transition for me--and they are in my school colors, woohoo!
