It's running time!!!

As some of you may know I have started to run daily, Each week I try to run a little further with less breaks. Lately I have been running to Seven Peaks, one of my new Favorite places, I then stop catch my breath and strectch if needed. Then I run the rest of the way home. Today was a great day because I did the whole thing without stopping. I wish you all could see the smile on my face when I am done, it is something to behold. Anyway, I have slowly transformed into a real deal runner. I started off running in my Workshoes from Walmart, b/c the were the best I had, I slowly merged from Basketball shorts to soccer shorts and this weekend I have nearly completed the cycle with some real deal gear. I thought I would share it with you.

To start off I got these awesome Nike AIR running shoes, I like them right when I saw them, I got them from Khols which isn't know for Running Shoes, but are known for good prices, They were a great deal, and I wore them around the house yesterday in my sunday clothes to help break them in, I got a lot of funny comments. And of course I couldn't just get any ole' shorts to go running in, I had to get some nice ones that would match my newly aquired shoes. I got 2 for1. The first ones are these really fun Nike black shorts with red and white racing stripes down the side. They are very comfy and fun. I also got these very fun and flashy red shorts to bring out the red in my fast shoes, and yes I do feel as if "I can run faster and jump higher" Sorry for the immodesty, if it is too much it can be taken off, I know it was even brave to post it, but it is so hot here that I run with my shirt in my hand. (So I apologize if I offend any of our viewers.)
Tricked ya!!! They were 2 for 1 but you probably didn't think that they were also 2 in 1. They are great, they are really comfy and it is as if I have two different pairs. I sported the black ones today so maybe tomorrow I will be as if I am running with flames coming off my thighs. I feel great, I really want to enter a 10 k or something like that, now that I have conquered the 5K as all of you have already witnessed. I will keep you updated.
