As I previously blogged, I was happy happy to get a new pair of Brooks Running shoes!
I do need to mention that my dad has been running in Brooks Running shoes for over 40 years so this is a life long family thing here and now I’m part of it!
As I mentioned before, I luv the “run happy” tissue paper that comes in the box with the shoes and all over the box design (you do remember me mentioning that I’m easily amused right!?)
Buying shoes online is always a bit problematic for me since I never know what kind to get, but Brooks Running solved that issue.
They have an online Shoe Advisor that takes you step by step to recommend which shoe(s) will be the best for what you need!
When I used it, it suggested the Switch 4 running shoes and it was spot on!
These are perfect for me.
They have excellent support, which I need compliments of a few issues I seem to be having with my right foot/ankle, and are great for new runners. While I’m not new to running, it’s been years & years since I’ve been serious about it so I guess technically I just may be a newbie again!
All I can say is that I love heading out the door now for a run!
and definitely have the run happy thing going on…
when I get back from my run…I’m happy happy that my feet were comfortable and I survived!
I truly love my new Brooks Switch 4 running shoes and that makes running so much more enjoyable!
I’ve finally found a pair of shoes that fit perfectly, are comfortable, light weight and supportive.
Thank you Brooks Running!!!
I’m also running in the Hotter than Hades Virtual Half Marathon so these new Switch 4 shoes came at the perfect time!
Now to get really serious about training so I can do a real half marathon all at once instead of the virtual one where I’ve split the miles over a few days…
I’m confident I’ll accomplish a real half and my Brooks Switch 4’s will be with me when I cross the finish line!
