Well, I do have some rather exciting news for those that aren't my facebook friends and therefore haven't had to experience my recent obsession around this one specific thing:
O yeah, that's right, I have a new goal race, on September 15th!! I took advantage of the reduced registration fee during national running day, so I obviously rule. duh.
I was originally thinking I would do the Harrisburg Half, which I had registered for last year and had to pull out less than 3 weeks before the race because I came up with a hamstring injury. I saw running Harrisburg as my redemption opportunity. Ultimately, though, this race is closer to the majority of my friends and family and thinking about doing a rock 'n' roll marathon series race just gets me all giddy. Silly? Probably but it's all good and I'm excited- that's what matters!

Love these socks! |
I've been running in Gold Toe Power Sox for years, and I love them for any fitness activity, and haven't run in anything else for at least a year. Great support, breath-ability and never had blister issues before. I'm worried it may be the shoes, but want to try a new sock first...So...
What kind or brand of socks do you run in?
I've been running the last few months in Nikes. I'm not sure what type of sock they are, but they have extra cushioning in certain parts of the sock and there's a right and a left sock! I didn't get any blisters during my last half. I also have a pair of NB socks I got in my goody bag from the LI Half and they're a lot like the Nike socks.
ReplyDeleteHave fun in Philly! I want to do a Rock 'n' Roll eventually!
nice, I have a pair of Adidas socks that sound similar but unfortunately they are a little big on me so tend to shift a little. Maybe I should give Nikes a chance- thanks!
DeleteGetting involved in the Rock & Roll races will be HIGHLY ADDICTIVE! The moment you see the medals for participating in 2, 3, 5, 10 races, just makes you start drooling of how much you want them! Okay...maybe I'm a little weird, but the medals are awesome!
ReplyDeleteMedals are totally awesome, you are so right on!
