My Year of Running Fun started off a bit like my grandpa's old Lister engine on the farm back when we were kids: With a huff and a puff and... well, not much else. But, when the year's running finally did commence (and the coughing finally stopped, hooray!), it did so in style: With a parkrun, yay!

Annnnnd, to make the start of this Year of Running Fun even more fun, I nabbed these at a local sale...
The Nimbus 16s! I know, I know. I said that I was going to go with the New Balance 1080v5s. But a niggly knee convinced me that I need new running shoes right now (my newest pair is already more than a year old), and the 1080v5s are still nowhere to be seen in our dearest home town. Plus the Nimbuses were on sale. And they're purple. Can we go running now??
A parkrun and new running shoes... I'm having a ball already!
Happy weekend, everyone!

ReplyDeleteNOTHING like a new pair of [purple :) ] running shoes to fan the running flame :) !
DeleteCongrats on the great race! Brava.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shoes, even if now I wear Brooks the Asics are my favorite ones.
Thanks so much, Stefano!
DeleteI've never run with Brooks, but have heard some really good things about it. I heel strike quite badly (boo!), so the support that Asics (Nimbus) gives is perfect for me :) .
