For most runners, a pair of running shoes "wears out" somewhere between 300 and 500 miles.

Twelve good things

November 4, 2006

1. My sister got to welcome her husband home from Iraq a month early last night.

2. This is a drop back week for my long run. This means I only have to run 10 miles, not 18 or 20. I highly recommend drop back weeks when you’re marathon training or just doing long runs in general. Your body needs a break, just like your mind. It’s like vacation, you come back stronger.

3. I get to go to a hockey game tonight.

4. I am getting Christmas shopping finished early this year.

5. I’m hanging out with my Grandma later.

6. We’re having Chinese food for lunch.

7. It’s in the 50’s today and the sun is shining.

8. My laundry is done!

9. Just found out one of my very best friends is coming to visit in ten days.

10. Someone gave me the new Alan Jackson cd and let me tell you, I am not sure I could love it more. Even if you don’t call yourself a “country fan” you should take a listen. Good stuff.

11. I leave in just 20 short days to see my nephew again!

12. Injini’s are good for your feet. Serious. All you blister-getting runners ought to try. You won’t regret it.
