These shoes are made for walking....

Last weekend I went to Fleet Feet on Saturday evening to get them to 'fit' me for new running shoes. I've been struggling with achilles tendonitus for about a year now, and am trying to get shoes that do ok for long periods of time.

I have had these shoes for just over a week now. They were not cheap. They say that 'running shoes' are good for about 400 miles.

I have a pedometer on my bodybugg that tells me how many steps a day I walk....From last Sunday to tonight, I have walked 147,982 steps. I calculated the other day that my mile is 1750 steps (yup, long legs :) ) that means that in the past 8 days, I have walked over 84 miles in these shoes. At this rate, I would be buying $100 pair of shoes every month.

UGH!!!!!
