Tryna get New Running Shoes

I went over to Fleet Feet over at Metlock Bridge. Spoke with Manager Andy in regards to finding a shoe for my specific type of feet.

He had me do a couple of things. I had to walk bear foot so he could determine my type feet. I was amaze to find out what type of shoes fit me. It was not the "NIKE" I've grown up to love. Instead it was Brooks, Mizuno, and Asics. After narrowing down to 3 shoes he had me run in all of them. He was able to determine which shoes fit my feet.
He finally boiled it down to one: "Mizuno Wave"
Wow! This is incredibly light and comfortable. Definitely, huge upgrade from my Nike Air Trainer.
