Today’s Run: \u00a0Rest Day<\/p>\n

Today is an official rest day on my training schedule and you had better believe me, I am doing just that~resting. \u00a0I even took a short nap! \u00a0Shock and disbelief!<\/p>\n

One thing kept me from nodding off for very long, that was the shipping confirmation I received this morning from Zappos.<\/p>\n

I have never done business with Zappos before. \u00a0Of course, I had heard of them but not for sporting goods type of things. \u00a0Then a rumor reached me of a sale the were having on my fancy new running shoes! \u00a0I decided to check them out.<\/p>\n

Sure enough. \u00a0If I downloaded their free app and ordered through the app, I saved $50.00 on a pair of those shoes. \u00a0I immediately talked to MFH. \u00a0He thought for a second and said I should order a pair.<\/p>\n

See, I rotate my running shoes. \u00a0There is an article out today in Runner’s World that deals specifically with the some of the reasons I rotate my running shoes. \u00a0Here is the link: \u00a0\u00a0http:\/\/www.runnersworld.com\/injury-prevention-recovery\/study-backs-rotating-shoes-to-lower-injury-risk?cm_mmc=Facebook-_-RunnersWorld-_-Content-News-_-RotatingShoesBetter<\/a><\/p>\n

Not to belabor the point, but Zappos offered free overnight shipping and free return shipping if things did not work out how I wanted. \u00a0So, last night at 6:30 pm I placed my order. \u00a0About ten minutes ago, 1:30 pm, the UPS guy pulled into my driveway and delivered my new shoes. \u00a0I must say, I am a little impressed!<\/p>\n

I am wearing the shoes around the house for a couple of hours to see if they will work and will take them on a test run in the morning. \u00a0Just to make sure. \u00a0All is well that ends well!<\/p>\n
