(almost) ready to run

music : ready to run by the dixie chicks


i did not sleep saturday night. like a zombie i went through the motions of my morning ritual. i did what i usually do during most sleepless nights -- i burned the phone line a made a trail of calls to a few of my friends and my mom back in the philippines.

then in the morning i went to j's house to get my check, then went to the mall in search of the perfect running shoes. i looked at lady footlocker, modell's, finish line, sports authority but i did not find what i was looking for. my last resort was DSW, and ssssssccchhhhwwwwiiiiiiinnnnnngggggg!!!!!!

the shoewhore scores!





don't these tootsies scream all my names in them?! it's puuurrrrffffeeeecttt! and you know what? they are so light too, so comfy! the best part is, they were not that expensive either - $75 including tax. not bad at all.

so srew you nike shox. i still don't like you and your $120+ price tag.


but wait, not just yet. the shoes i got were a bit too big, so i have to go back there tomorrow to exchange it with a half size smaller. damn, it's true what they say then, when one gains weight, the shoe size changes as well, and the same goes when you lose weight. sigh, i'll assess the damage of this weight loss to my shoe collection. sniff, sniff.


anyway, i got great deals on running gear from the lady footlocker so i got a couple of running pants and sports tops. i also got a few pairs of long sleeved shirts to go with the pants. it's getting chilly in the mornings when i run.


i had wanted to run in full battle running gear regalia today but it'll have to wait 'til i get my shoes exchanged.

lubsi, you are so right, there are a lot of cute running gear out there. i'll definitely take you up on that offer for a run next time i drive down there. jock-jockan na itoh!!!
