Note
Normally I'd avoid Athletes Foot stores. They aren't generally big on super specials and 2 year old models of shoes going on mega sale.
But the store manager at the Geraldton store is very friendly and for some reason decided it would be good to support local runners. She's given me and two other locals (2nd local male and first female in the marathon) FREE shoes, socks and running singlet. Wore the socks and singlet in the race so they could get some publicity shots and did my bit by not sucking. Picked up free shoes today. Yay.
Brooks Glycerin 13. But will probably keep them in the box for a bit until I destroy my current Mizunos. Went into the shop to buy Saucony Triumphs, which I had worn for a short jog a couple of months ago, but the Glycerins felt just as comfy and look like I'm less likely to put my toe through the end.
In other news actually felt like running today, but my right achilles is still giving me a fair bit of grief, so might lay off for a bit longer.
