18 degrees and counting this morning didn't entice me to get out onto the road for jogging! The weather reminded me of those freezing cold night runs in Arlington, Virginia when we wore hats that covered the whole face except for the eyes. When we returned they would be frozen! YAY! So glad those days are past.
Still layered up and wearing heavy socks and pants tucked into my regular BROOKS while anticipating the temperatures and was NOT disappointed. There was a little wind making a big difference in chill factor this morning when the trail turned into it. The first lap around this morning was brutally cold. But by the second, once turning into the sun and mountain view, I was taking off the gloves and looking up for the sun warming.
As always, I was also NOT disappointed in my running shoes.
They felt great. When the foot hits the ground and finds a soft cushy landing rather than the hard clunk of cardboard, there is none of that tremor going up the leg. Brooks most careful engineering reminds me of how Star Trek Enterprise transitions into high Warp 5 drive without wobble. When my feet hit the ground without variance, I give thanks every time! Smooth striding transition and very nice stable landing in each step is my requirement in a good running shoe.
And, if the running shoe fits, wear it. If not, find another purpose for it.
Happy Running!
