It's a new month and new running shoes.

Hi All,

Today, I did my first run in my new Brooks Adrenaline.  I was delaying switching shoes, but given the rain weather on Saturday and the lovely rain coming up through the soles of the shoe, well, that settled my decision.  I love the feel of running in new shoes.  Tomorrow, I will run my first workout in shoes that will be for workouts and racing.  It will be my first run in the Brooks Ravenna.  Below is my Instagram picture and caption of them:

Racing (Brooks Ravenna) and workout shoes followed by easy and long run shoes (Brooks Adrenaline). Someone recently suggested, kindly, that I give up running until my work deadlines are under control. I nodded kindly and thought, "um, respectfully, no - running keeps me sane!"

Some have commented, over the years and recently, about why I prioritize running when surrounded by deadlines.  I have a simple answer for you.  Running keeps me sane.  I miss it horribly, when I cannot do it, and I always feel 10x better after a run, even when I am soaking wet!

May might be deadline month, but that does not mean it will keep me from lacking up my shoes and hitting the roads and trail.

Happy Monday!
