Wordless Wednesday: A reason not to run barefoot

To be fair, these are pretty much my dedicated trail shoes. And the trails that connect to my yard are not exactly maintained. So who knows where the screw would have decided to hitch a ride. I’m just glad that didn’t find it’s way into my foot because Ouch! that would have been PAINFUL! P.S. [...]

Superhero

Some days I feel like a superhero at work. I spend the morning walking around in 4 inch heels. And within a few minutes I transform into a running machine. I love my daily break when I take the time to do it. I love the feel of my running shoes after wearing towering heels [...]

Wordless Wednesday – What I dislike about my Nike Frees

My Nike Free 5.0 tend to pick up rocks all the time. Most of the time I don’t notice or feel them. But I do hate having to pull them out.

Running Shoes – A Girl’s Best Friend?

Is there a genetic marker that makes girls love their shoes? Perhaps, financially, I was fortunate enough to be born with giant feet. Because being able to buy cute girly shoes should certainly kill any hope of a budget we would have. Instead, I drive my husband crazy with the purchase of running shoes. But [...]

Adam's Running

St. Patty’s Selection

My husband has an arsenal of running shoes. When I clean the house and put them all in the mudroom, the shoes take up a large portion of a corner of the room. Well on St. Patrick’s day morning I was trying to convince him that he need to wear green. Me: “You should wear [...]

All I wanted for Christmas

When Adam asked me, the only thing I could think of that I wanted was a pair of trail runners so I could extend my running to trails and deal with the lovely mess that are Manchester’s sidewalks during the winter. Adam has a pair of red trail shoes that I love because they are [...]

Miriam the Filly Runner
I'm a 28 year old ex-Northeastern-rower who is finding a new love for physical fitness in the form of running. I love running long distances (even aiming for Ultramarathons) on both road and trail. I've toyed with barefoot but mostly go with the minimalistic shoes. I may not be very fast, but I'm enjoying competing against myself. I'm Canadian but love living in New Hampshire with my hubby, and our Poodle and cats. When not running, I'm usually being a nerdy engineering type.

Cooper the Blonde Poodle
Cooper, who's registered name is French Fries and Gravy, is a 1 year old Cream Standard Poodle (he's on the small side of his breed). He thinks that living with two runners is fantastic, as long as he gets to tag along. His longest run to date has been 22 miles off leash, so he probably did significantly more than that. Coop's non-running adventures are often documented in my other blog Life with a Blonde Poodle.
