I got NB 882's http://www.newbalancetoronto.ca/deta...?style=WR882CU

I have very very wide feet, this is the first pair of shoes i was able to get in wide width. I can't believe what a difference it makes, i could even go with a 7.5 instead of an 8. I've found that here very few shoes come in wide, running, dress, casual or otherwise, but they do more in the US..not sure why.

10 miles in today.


Speaking of shoes, retiring my Brooks Addiction 7s (size 10.5 4E). Brooks are the only shoes that fit wide enough and support my flat feet. 585.3 miles on them. I seem to average between 500 and 600 miles on a pair of shoes. I retire them when I start to notice little nagging pains that I don't normally have (usually in the lower leg area).

Wow, Rich, how do you get that many miles out of a pair of shoes? Do you run on pavement or dirt/grass?? Seems like with my bony feet, 300 miles is the absolute maximum I get before those nagging pains start .. I dunno, maybe its cuz I have very little cush on my feet?? I wish I could go farther than 300 miles cuz my shoes are EXPENSIVE! But hey, what's money if it saves your joints, right?

Tuesday, 5.2 miles after work.

3.1 miles in yesterday...might take a rest day today..haven't decided yet.

Betty it kills me to put out $100+ on shoes that don't have a 3" heel!! . But you are right, for health reasons it's worth it...i basically try to buy a new pair every 6 months (though i went far longer this time since i hadn't run since last summer...). I don't put in big miles but i just try to buy two pairs a year to be on the safe side.
