Gel insole failure

The Gel insoles did not work! =( So I am going to have to get those new ASICS sooner rather than later...I set out for a 4 mile walk today and about 1/2 mile into it I knew that there was going to be pain...lots and lots of pain! I kept on thinking that I could stretch it out and finish strong but it just got progressively worse...I only made it 2 miles and every step was hard, when running shoes give up the ghost they don't mess around! Every pair of running shoes I have worn out have always created the same symptoms in my right outer/lower shin and calf. How do your shoes tell you they are done?

BTW Thanks for the comments I appreciate the feedback and let me know how to get to your blogs, I would love to read them!

On a more exciting positive note I had a delicious lunch. Spring mix lettuce with dried cranberries, feta, red onion and crimini mushrooms with a little Tuscan Italian dressing (which Safeway Organics no longer make but is one of the best salad dressings ever) and a bowl of whole/long grain rice!

  1. My feet and arches start to ache when my shoes are shot. (A foam roller, however, will be your best friend...cheap but invaluable!)
