I don't usually run on Thursdays (And this was more of a jog than a run anyways.), but I got some new shoes in the mail last night that I plan on using for Boston and I wanted to try them out.  They are the new update from the SpeedStar 3.  SpeedStar 4 is definitely different than the previous model. It wasn't just small changes.  I think I like them, but I'll have to do a longer run in them to be sure.

SpeedStar 4 Miles: 3.00

Glad you like your new shoes. Just be careful ... remember your mantra!!! Your runs this week have been incredible. I can't believe this is nice and slow for you. You are amazing!!!

Hey Rhett, where did you buy them from? I am looking to buy some running shorts online but am not sure what sites are quality.

Mack, I always order my running gear from Roadrunnersports.com As a VIP member I get free shipping, a small discount, and I can actually wear and run in the shoes for up to 60 days and still send them back for a full refund if I don't like them.

SpeedStar fits you 'cause you're ONE! :)

Hope they work out for you for Boston!
