Got me some new kicks

I really really realllly want to be a runner. I have been working hard at it, but recently I have been having shooting pains up the side of my shins. After discussing my symptoms with my runner friends, I was diagnosed with shin splints. I have been stretching and writing the cursive alphabet with my foot (thanks Allie) to help. I also figured my sneakers aren't helping the problem, so yesterday my hubby took me to get some new ones.

I decided on the Nike Lunarfly+ from Dick's Sporting Goods.

Aren't they pretty? I love the bright green soles. 

I went to the gym and ran 2.5 miles on the treadmill. My shin still hurt, but I definitely felt like there was a spring back in my step! My sneakers are super light and airy, and very very comfy! I think I will be back on track to become the runner that I so terribly want to be!

Now I just need the Nike shoe sensor to track my progress!
