I am looking everywhere for rack room shoes and rack room shoes, while doing so I somehow stumbled onto your rack room shoes blog. I am happy to say I learned something and will look into this further...

Thanks for the great posts...

I'm so glad you finally went to the doc! We haven't gotten to talk much lately, so I feel totally out of the loop with you!!! So we got our Bowflex this weekend, and so far I'm loving it! I already knew from past experience that I LOVE weights, it's cardio I HATE!! I'm going to try running though, because you've inspired me, and I'm excited about pounding my frustrations into the ground :-) We'll chat later hopefully!!

That's really fantastic! It's really crazy what a difference shoes can make. I started walking 6k a day on some crappy shoes and it was brutal; shin splints, sore knees, the whole bit. I finally sucked it up and bought new running shoes. (I bought runners instead of walkers incase I might like to start running when I get back into some sort of shape)

Weight training is also a great stress releif, glad to hear you're enjoying it!

I'm so jealous about your running addiction. And very glad to hear that you got yourself some good shoes! I sold sneakers in a sporting goods store for years. Were the socks that he tried to sell you Thorlos? Cuz if so they are totally worth the $12. ;) You should try to find some on ebay (new of course) and treat yourself to them on your long run days. They're AWESOME.
We have a Bowflex but I've never used it. My husband has tried to talk me into it several times. Maybe at some point I will have to muster up some ambition to give it a try now that I have a female's perspective on it!

Glad to hear running won't be over for good! You w...

Glad to hear running won't be over for good! You will be out there soon enough. I am sure the new shoes will really help. Good Luck.

That's it, you've inspired me now. Once my boobs fit inside a sports bra again, I will try running...err..jogging. Well, I'll start with walking really fast. I have always hated running. Only liked exercise when it involved kicking, hitting or dribbling a ball around. But since there's not a big demand on the sports teams for an out-of-shape mom in her 30's, well I guess I'd better just get my ass outside and start running.

Hope you're back out there pounding the pavement soon. Show us a pic of the new sneaks, too!

My feet are so weird that they point to opposite walls (and not up toward the ceiling when I lie in bed). Of course, this has led to heels spurs and orthotics, and I must also where decent running shoes most of the time. And those Running Room double socks are very good for helping to prevent chafing and blistering. I might have even got the socks at a store very near you, since we don't have those stores here.

I had a back injury that kept me from the gym for about 2 weeks. I couldn't do the treadmill or the weights (I normally do both), and I was going crazy.

When I was able to return, I overcompensated and now I have a pulled tendon in my knee.

....sigh.........
