New Runners!!!

Despite all the loss I have made recently, I still decided to buy myself a decent pair of runners, as both pairs of Asics seem to be so heavily battle wounded. So.... LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!! INTRODUCING.... SAUCONY PROGRID TRIUMPH 5!!!!



The colour I bought cannot be found on the web site, so I had to use a different colour but the model is the same.A shoe recommended by the owner (who is also a runner) when I told him what kind of a runner I am and what kinda foot I possess. Sounds confusing? Well, if you have been running long enough, you will discover a pattern you usually run, like I have posted awhile back about running styles, if your heels land first, u are a heel footer runner, and if the ball of the feet lands first, you are a fore-footer runner. There is plently more but this is the fundamental, there is also the shape of your foot and stuff, its alot of knowledge actually. Alot of fun to find out so that you get the right shoes, its important, why? coz its matters not only to your ankle, but will also affect all joints, such as your knee, hip and even your spine.

Have not go for a run in this pair of shoes yet, well considering I only bought it yesterday. Will feedback on how it is once I have tried it. But I just got to know it is rated "Best Shoe" in 2008 by Runner's World UK. Hmm, impressive, but how does it work on an Asian? hehe... shall try to find out... anyone interested to go for a test run with me in my new shoe just give me a call k.... hahah say like majiam new car going out for a spin like that... heez... But hey I am serious, light run, just give me a call!!! good training for those taking part in stand chart... hehe... *hint hint* hee
