New Shoes!

I was super excited and equally nervous to get outside for a run tonight.  Excited to try out my new shoes but nervous that I'd only make it a few miles and have to walk back to my car.

The new shoes felt good, noticeably more cushion. For the past three years, I have been running in Saucony brand shoes, specifically the Women's Grid Ignition 2 model.  They're comfortable, reliable and most importantly, affordable.
