New trainers :)

So, I've finally got over the doom and gloom of going back to work, and am able to walk again after getting over my first 'boot camp' session last week (ouch!) and so I can no longer justify not going running, especially as I've got new trainers - woohoo! These babies are going to be my vehicles for getting round the marathon course come May so I stuck with Nike as my last three pairs have been fab, plus these ones are all geared up for keeping my feet dry during the inevitable running in the rain I will have to put myself through over the next few months! I love buying new running kit - I could spend endless hours in my fave running shop, Start Fitness, looking at all the lovely tops and tights and shorts and jackets and socks and accessories and..... well you get the idea! Plus having new stuff makes me want to get out there and try it out! ;)

It looked like quite a nice day for going running - not too windy and not too cold so off I headed in my lovely lovely new trainers for a nice little 5.5 mile jaunt to Marske and back. Sadly this wasn't very good planning as by the second mile I my trainers were starting to rub and by the third it was raining and I was too far from home to stop / turn back so on I went. Back home now and my feet are not very happy about the new trainers - huge blister alert! Doh! Was abit stupid to not try and wear them in abit first so I will have to persist! Just not tomorrow as I think anything other than slippers is going to be painful! Grrrrrr!  Not the best start to my running year but hopefully it can only get better!?!?!?
