Wrong shoes

[Today’s run: 3.5 miles]

This time of year I do my runs at lunch time because it is too dark in the evening and I’m too lazy in the morning.

Today the UPS man brought a box with a new pair of shoes for me.  But I decided to run in the old pair once more, they don’t seem completely worn out yet.

So I got my gear on and went for the usual 3.5 mile route.  It was a good run.  The shoes did seem a bit on the flat and hard end of the spectrum.  But it didn’t really bother me so I just did my thing and had a good run.

When I got home I discovered that I was wearing the old-old-old shoes I usually use for painting and other dirty chores.  They must be at least 3 years old, maybe 5.  So I still have my not-yet-retired pair and then the new pair in the box that I haven’t even looked at yet.  And I have 2-3 pair of recently retired shoes from 2016 still hanging around.
