I looked at what I was using a few nights back as well as realized whatever was either from a thrift store or Plato’s wardrobe (an over-priced thrift store). Everything, except for my running shoes.

Today I made a trip to Dick Beardsley Running business in Fargo where I buy new balance running shoes every six months or so. I frequently catch the older design of my shoe on sale. Today the store was out of my size in the 1061s, so I splurged on the newer 1063s, together with a pair of Superfeet Insoles. Dick Beardsley’s is a fantastic location to buy shoes since the people who work there truly like running as well as understand what they are speaking about when it comes to shoes.

Shoes are one of the few things I buy new. I decline to spend more than $12 on a pair of jeans, as well as even then I’m understood to wear them up until they are covered in holes. I bought my mutt’s kennel at a garage sale for $25, as well as when he needs a new toy I bring my dog to garage sales where he picks out stuffed animals for a quarter. I even got Ace as well as my feline Scout for free.

As for the shoes, I hope to slowly break them in this week, as well as then do an 8-10 mile run with Ace Thursday morning. Thursday appears like it will be a sunny day. Often, that’s all it takes for me to have a great run, as long as I leave early in the morning so my black mutt doesn’t get as well hot.

April miles: 61.88
