175/365

Got fitted for some new kicks at Runners Corner. Eric outfitted them with all the TV's for their new location so they hooked him up with a 10% off coupon.

I didn't think I was worthy of getting fitted for running shoes because I'm not really a runner - but I am trying to become one. The girl that helped me was awesome and spent an hour with me, she assured me that it doesn't matter how much I run but I do need the right shoe. She gave me about 8 shoes to try and I ran around the outside of the store in every pair until I found the perfect fit. I know so much more about my shoe; how to tie them, what I'm looking for, and even how to run.

116/365

Scored this awesome jogger on KSL. It was listed for $40 obo but I got it for $15! I've never been one to haggle a price and planned on paying the full amount (I need to grow some balls but I did end up working my magic on this baby). The woman I purchased it from had no idea how to collapse the jogger and had to get her husband to show me. It's a bit of a pain because you have to take all 3 wheels off (like a bike) and my hands got a little greasy. I had to practice a couple times to make sure I had it down. The woman didn't realize what a pain it was either and felt bad so together we decided $15 was a good deal, she just wanted to get rid of it. Sweet meat.

Leila and I tested it out and it's as light as a feather and is such a smooth ride. After going for a jog with a friend I realized that I love my jogger more than hers (sorry Laura) and decided it's probably worth more than I paid.
Bonus: it collapses so small that our other stroller fits in the trunk and them some.
