Shoe Shopping

Zak and I just made it home today! We drove all night and are going to get to enjoy Zaks spring break here at home! So excited! So today I wanted to share my shoe shopping experience and also make a great recommendation for a place to get your shoes if you are interested.  I went to Rogue Valley Runners in Ashland OR. Here is the link to the web site.    http://www.roguevalleyrunners.com/ . They do have stores like this all over the place. There is place similar to this in Spokane too. What I really like about Rogue Valley Runners is there is a treadmill and they video tape you running so they can watch how your feet are.  Based on that they help you find a shoe that is perfect for you! I looked over the website and found some great information on the owner of the store! he definitely know his stuff! Don't be afraid to get fitted for a shoe then go home and do some research on the shoe! In fact.. I recommend it! The places that I have encountered  don't work on commission so you are fine to think about the purchase. My advice.. BE PICKY! It's okay to take your time when it comes to shopping for your running attire especially your shoes! If you are not happy with your shoes then I GUARANTEE no matter the length or distance you will be miserable! The best part about these shoes is I a really really looking forward to my run tomorrow! I am going to try to be better at blogging this weekend so I can hopefully give you some tips and tricks on how to make it through a vacation!

Enjoy!
