Got a pair of Skechers over the weekend and I was anxious to try them out so I went for a quick run before heading to the gym.  While walking around in them, they are incredibly comfortable.  During the run, I could tell that I will need to make some adjustments to my running form.  It is interesting how the shoes encourages the mid-foot strike.  They definitely have potential.  It's the first pair of minimalist shoes that have felt good. 

For the first time, Becky and I went to Firehouse together.  I have avoided this as I think it is a bad idea for her to see me in such a poor light.  I don't mind it when strangers see me make a fool of myself but it is a little embarassing when somebody who I would like to be impressed with me watches as I stumble through the exercises.

I don't think Becky would ever not be impressed with you. She is always praising you on our runs. I bet you killed it in firehouse anyway!

Glad to hear your first run in the Sketchers went well. I'm sure they aren't for everyone, but I really love them.
