RETIREMENT ROWThe shoes on the right are officially retired. From left to right; NB850's, Asics Gels, Asics Gel Kayano's 16's and NB 1011's. This is what over a thousand miles looks like. I can't bear to part with 'em. The Asics Gel's were my 1st pair, from when I started running in 2009. I ran my 1st race, the Festival of lights 5k in December 2009 in 'em. I also ran my last race as a 49 year old, the City of Encinitas 5k in California. The NB850's were my 2nd pair, they took me thru the 1st 5 months of 2010 to include the GRR training class and the 2010 15k GRR, my 1st GRR. My Asics Gel Kayano's 16's, my 3rd pair. I bought these in San Diego the day after the Encinitas 5k, after retiring my Asics Gel's. Bought them at Road Runner Sports, where my nephew Tacuma works and he got me a 50% discount. I'm talking $140 shoes for $70 bucks. Those Kayano's took me from San diego, Tijuana to Perris Valley, Ca., up the Pacific Coast Hwy, Seatle, Alaska, Vancouver and Victoria Canada, also, to NYC, Ga., all over Florida, skydiving and 2+ races every month for the rest of 2010. My NB1011's, just bought those May 18, 2011. Barely had them 2 months, and they have 169.999 miles on them. They started my ING NYC marathon training with me June 1st. And now almost 170 miles later, they're ready for a rest. All these shoes have served me well, above and beyond. Those shoes bear my blood, sweat, skin, DNA, and yes tears. Tears of joy, accomplishments, frustrations, good days and bad, in soreness and in health. They're my shoes and they're not going anywhere.
