Although I will NEVER be sporting these to prove or make some fashion statement, I do humbly admit that I owe my BIL Charles an apology. They still are very weird looking, but I am wearing them... but very selectively. He was fashionably parading these a few years ago (in puke yellow..yuck! aren't my grey and pinks much cuter? ) . My reasons for the splurge are much different than Charles' though. His = to continue to carry on and state and overstate his weirdness and need to be different...or cool? Mine = I looked at my bare behind one too many times in my full length a few Fridays back, and decided it was high time for an intervention. My 2 year break from cardio and the gym have really taken a toll. These babies are supposed to be gentler to my poor abused, over worked, over surgereid x 3 knees (a big reason for giving it all up... but I could have done elliptical, I just opted for lazy)
My first date with these puppies was STRAIGHT up Eaglewood Dr... and then back DOWN. Back in my race days, I would have been running straight to the doc after that abuse. I have to say, no knee pain. I was impressed, but now, it sucks, cuz I have no excuse. Well, maybe the rain? The colder weather? The lack of daylight in the early morning? There's always something, eh? We'll see if I can muster out of me some pent up motivation. ;)
...if only ryan wouldn't have canceled that gym membership auto pay...
Then I would have maintained the momentum...
HA! I just made myself chuckle!
