Almost New Shoes


While I was registering my son and brother-in-law for the Nike 10K race at the Nike store in Greenbelt 3, I saw on display the new LunarGlide+ 3. And it was my size - 13; it is so hard to find running shoes in my size in the Philippines. I remembered what my other brother-in-law told me, that if I find the running shoe that I like in my size - it was destiny. I even had a semi-good reason to buy new ones because I couldn't find my LunarGlide+ 2. I was about to succumb to another moment of weakness, but fortunately (or unfortunately) my wife was with me and she got me to snap out of it and I was able to regain control of my credit card.

Oh well, I even loved the colorway - black with a red swoosh, and yellow sole. But, it's not meant to be. YET.

It didn't change this year. My waistline didn't change too. I thought that after training for and finishing a marathon, I would at least have a normal BMI. Oh well. I still have plantar fasciitis and for the first time I have a dead toenail (on my big toe; from my marathon). About my running gear: I retired my Mizuno Wave Elixir and Nike LunarGlide, and replaced them with the New Balance 870 and Nike LunarGlide 2. I bought 2 new Nike running shorts, 2 New Balance c...

Brand Diversity

When I got back from a run this evening, I noticed I was wearing an Adidas cap, an Apple Nike watch, a Reebok shirt, New Balance shorts, Saucony socks, and Hoka shoes. Brands were well represented.
