I decided it was time for a new pair of running shoes. And my, these babies are comfortable! So far they have been kind to my knees. An important aspect in a running shoe, don’t you think?
I’m planning to run a 5K trail race in September, IF my knees cooperate (hence the new shoes).
What spurred this on? Well, Son #2 ran a 10km Trail race a couple of weeks ago, and a few of us were there cheering him on. And it made me want to be a part of it sooo bad! So, it looks like a few of us in the family may be running in the next Kamloops trail race.

(if you click on the pic, you’ll see a line of runners snaking off in the distance).
Dave has actually agreed to train with me (it’s a miracle!!) and we have started our training regimen, running the trails together . It’s a lot more enjoyable (and safe) to run with him. There’s no way I’m going to beat him in a race, though. He doesn’t even let me pass him when we’re out on our training runs.
Those hills are killers. It’s going to be a lot tougher than running a road race, but it will be worth it. I hope.
