Today I made the trip up to Henderson to my favorite running store, Village Runner. I arrived and was greeted cheerfully and I mentioned I needed some new shoes (no really?!lol) I didnt catch the guys name who was working, Im so bad about that! But he was very helpful. I told him a bit about my running shoe history and he brought out a couple of cushioning shoes. One by Nike and one by Mizuno. I tried both on and fell in love with the Mizuno’s I really was a bit wary of them since the guy helping me mentioned they were a more narrow shoe. Ive always thought I had pretty wide feet but these fit like a glove. I was having flash backs to my Brooks Radius 05s which felt like heaven on my feet. I took the Mizuno WaveRider 9’s for a quick spin to make sure they were really as yummy as the felt. They totally were! I cant wait to get a training run in, in these! Good by torture shoes! I think my New Balance 816’s are going to be donated or trashed uncerimoniously ASAP!
