Taking one for the team reward

As I was training for the quickly approaching marathon I realized that my old shoes were pretty worn out and hurting my feet.  I went looking for new shoes but after realizing how expensive they were I settled on new insoles and sent Stefan a picture of the shoes I wanted asking him to get them for me for Christmas.  Turns out the insoles in my old shoes were glued down and we couldn’t even get the new insoles in without ripping apart my shoes so I settled for wearing the old ones and was fine with that.  A few days later I came home to a new pair of shoes on our couch ready for me to wear.  Stefan thought it was silly for me to train for the half marathon with old shoes and get new ones AFTER the marathon so he went out and bought me these.

I do really love them.  They are the first pair of walking/running shoes I’ve ever put on that feel great right away and don’t feel like they need to be broken in.  I have such a thoughtful husband!

  1. Yay, Stefan! And I'm thinking he knows how important good shoes are for avoiding injury, too! :)
