New Shoes - and 2 nice runs
Got myself a new pair of Asics Nimbus VIs. A big change for me, moving away from Nikes the first time in my life, but as Snoop Dogg would say "If it aint fly, then you cant buy". Couldnt find anything in the Nike range that had a wider toe box. The Run n Fun guy suggested I try the Numbus, and man do they fly, never managed to break in a shoe without a blister. I guess there is always a first time. Did 2 10 mile runs, one on the treadmill and one around the lakes, and my feet never felt better. I wasnt planning on using them on a long run before I had done a few shorter ones, but I guess the way they have been going Im going to try them on a 17 miler tomorrow.
Fundraising is going well, the Metrodome volunteering is really padding my collections. Had a lot of fun working the beer port yesterday. Chatting, yelling and just entertaining a bunch of people who stopped by, until a mean lady in the other stall stopped by to complain, such a mojo killer. Anyways its was a bunch of fun, working with JJ and her friend was a blast.
My training with my mentee is going pretty well, just goes to show if you point peoples energies in the right direction, everyone can turn the corner.
Hope to see some of you guys out there running soon, there really isnt a better way to stay healthy

I've been running on the Nimbus VII for a couple of weeks, and I'm very happy with them.
Although I've always run in Asics, these are my first pair of Nimbus's. So I can't compare them to version VI. But I will tell you they feel pretty good, and I can tell the difference in cushioning from other shoes.
Right now, they're top of the line in cushioned shoes from Asics. However, I read on another blog that they're coming out with a new top of the line shoe next season. I forgot the name, but I remember the price. $165. Sheesh...
