Adidas Response
2:24 PM 5 Comments »
The reality has hit me that with this new addition to my life called blogging, comes one more thing to keep up with. I can be fairly undisciplined at times and tend to go through spurts and cycles. I kind of hate that about myself and really want to make strides to improving. There is something healing about admission, right?
I want to pat myself on the back and wish for you all to as well after reading this. Working out is no stranger to my undisciplined cyclic patterns and with this crazy summer of traveling and what not, I have definitely let exercise slip by the wayside. I have, however, in this last week put it back into my rotation. Let me briefly (yes, Will, I said briefly) tell you about how I got back on the horse; the horse I want to stay on.
I think we all need a little motivation sometimes and 2 weekends ago, when my awesome boyfriend, Will, made his way up to ole’ Richmond (story for another blog) the motivation was purchased; purchased in the form of my new running shoes.
Saturday took Will and I out and about to explore and see the sights in the beautiful weather. Our last stop was to Dick’s sporting goods where our initial goal was to purchase a football but, it quickly became much more than that. My running shoes at the time were at least a half size too big, and I had been using them for more than 5 years. Yeah, ridiculous. So, with the suggestion of the boyfriend, we perused the shoes. I ended up trying on several pair and eventually landed on the super cute, lightweight Adidas Response. I knew as I sat there with this new shoe on my foot, that this was the motivation I needed; proper and really cute shoes.
I am proud to say that since that purchase, my body, carried along by my new Adidas has found itself atop the elliptical machine and on the run for over a week now. If you were wondering, the football was also purchased, thanks to Will (also super cute) and is getting good use.
So, get off your couches, turn the Halo off, close the mini-fridge and get out there. New shoes, running buddy, whatever it takes; it is really worth it, and I hope this trend continues! I am off. Where? To work out, of course.

Love the shoes.. :) Missed you at church this morning. We really need to do coffee soon! I tried the pupmkin spice frappucino the other day and it was really good. :) Love you!
I can't help but be inspired. I'll have to make it a point to go to the Y tomorrow morning sniffles and all. I guess that means not as much Harry Potter. Oh the sacrifices I make for you.
Yeah I think wednesday will work.. I guess give me a call/email Tuesday? Oh and yes baby rice cereal is "the best thing that has ever happened to me." Haha ok not really. Just thought of that random Napoleon quote. Love ya! Bye! :) :)
I like the shoes, a nice combo or pretty and functionality!
Love you new shoes! Sure your tootsies are happy in them. I, however, am a Nike kinda woman! I must confess, I have strayed at one point in my life from my devotion to Nike and bought Adidas. They were very uncomfortable, so after my short term affair, I confessed, repented and returned to the Nikes! (Then again, maybe the Adidas may have worked...if they had not been purchased at the outlets store.....hmmmm).
