my magic mile.

Posted by eanne.owen12 Sep 17, 2009

Finally! New shoes from Road Runner! Custom fit and everything =) I found out that I over pronate on my left foot when I run, I have normal to high arches, and that my arch size is 6.5! No wonder I get painful blisters on my arches with size 8.5 shoes! It was pretty sweet actually, they set you up on a treadmill and its all computerized to figure out your foot type, pronation, etc. Highly recommend for all of those people who need new shoes for the marathon coming up. Still plenty of time to wear them in for the big race day! Plus all TNT members are VIP members! So go now and get customed!

I bought some pretty sweet nike plus shoes there..and of course I bought the nike chip that goes with it...plus the wrist band..=) but now I will always know my mileage and time. So today, with my handy wrist band and chip, I found out my magic mile which is 6:50! Before my new shoes my fastest mile was 7:25. Looking pretty..pretty..pretty good =)

Anywhoo...I counted the dollars with Amberly Sunday from our road block, and the team and I raised $735 in dollars...we haven't counted the change part yet, but I'm guessing well over $900 total!! Thank you for all that donated and for everyone who helped with the road block! Everyone was awesome!

BEER PONG TOURNY SATURDAY @ LODGE BAR!

Go TeamS!

emily runs for funds

Posted by eanne.owen12 Sep 8, 2009

6 more weeks till the Columbus Marathon and I'm definitely getting hot feet! Literally, I'm in need of new running shoes, I'm already 400 miles in, and there's only so much glide sticks and ibuprofen can do! So I can fully say right now training isn't going as planned. I should be at my long runs of uhm..17 miles! ya, I'm at 11..tomorrow I hope to change that however I'm still sore from the other day of running and bodypump. Bodypump really can kick your butt! If anyone is a  memeber at Lifestyles, I highly recommend taking up a bodypump class! Anyways, over all I'm still running and raising money! I'll be doing a roadblock this Saturday from 10-4pm, so if you see a group of girls at intersections with buckets, please spare some change!

Wish me luck on my next run..13miles!

Happy trails everyone! =)
