Gifts

Anyone notice a theme here? PURPLE

I was given a generous gift of some visa gift cards from my previous employees. I thought there's not a better way to spend it then go on a little shopping spree at my favorite endurance store Pulse Endurance Sports. And look at all the goodies I walked out with! Thanks everyone! Your gift is being put into good use with my training efforts.

I have to give a quick plug for my new Inov8 Road X 238s. LOVE THEM!!!!. First time I wore them I felt like I was running in slippers. They are the female road version of Inov8s intro to minimalist footware, with a 9mm heel to toe differential. My trail shoes Saucony Progrid Peregrine have a 4mm heel to toe differential, so I had no issues quickly adapting to my new Inov8s!

Birthday Present!!!!!!!!!!!!

Another gift!!! My birthday was in February and look what I got from my family. I've been using it for about 3 weeks now and love it. I have never trained with a Garmin or heart rate monitor, so it is also entertaining for me to play with it on my runs. I've used it on all my runs since I've gotten it. I've been so busy with work I haven't even been able to download any of my data yet, so I'm sure there's much more fun stuff to see when I do that.
