Nice easy run in the sunshine this morning. 35 degree sunshine felt like heaven compared to the 15 degree overcast chill we had yesterday morning.

I got free gift of three new pairs of Mizuno shoes today (Wave Ronin, Precision, and Rider). It felt like Christmas opening the boxes to see what was inside and try them all on. I have been talking to a really kind and friendly gentleman, Ron Wayne at Mizuno about representing them through the next year and I am strongly considering it, but still undecided. Its tough to decide which shoes I want to commit to wearing all the time. Through the years I've worn everything from Saucony, Brooks, Mizuno, Nike, New Balance, Asics, Adidas and New Balance. I guess you could say I'm an equal opportunist. Recently I've been wearing Nike more often because of the club discount and requirement that club members race in Nike but there are SO many great companies and comparable products out there it is not easy to decide on just ONE shoe company. I'm hoping it will become more clear to me over the next month or so because I'd really like to stop stewing about it and just commit.

Too bad you can only pick one....

That would be one of my top 2 choices if I got to choose. . .I guess it kind of depends on what support they are agreeing to provide. Good luck this weekend!

If I could marry my Mizunos, I would.

Tough decisions. So many sponsorships to choose from. Can you take the ones you don't want and give it to other FRB-ers? :)

April-Looking forward to seeing you soon. I bet you are getting pumped for your race!!

Michelle & Burton-Which Mizunos are your favorite? I ran in the Ronins this morning and they felt a little stiff for my liking.

Jon-If only you were my shoe size!! I'd love to share.

I train with the Precision and the waveriders. I haven't had any Miz racers. So I guess I am ignorantly infatuated.

I'm sure Brutus will be more enlightened. . .

Brutus? I always get the Wave Inspires because I need shoes with lots of support. It's a fatty thing.
