new shoes

today was GORGEOUS! So much so that I skipped out on my plan to hit the gym and went to target and bought some cheap running clothes so I could run outside instead. Tried out the new shoes I bought.. which may not have been a good thing. Granted, my knee is bruised (I think from Sunday), but I ended up having to walk the last .2 of the 6 miles since my knee was hurting so bad. When I picked out the shoes (Sauconys of course, but a different style than I'm used to), I was excited b/c they seemed to have more arch support than I'm used to. Now I'm wondering if that's a good thing, if perhaps I picked out some for ppl who pronate (I don't). Before worrying too much about the shoes, however, I should also pay attention to the fact that my carb intake lately has been about zilch, although I've been craving protein like it's my job (I even had a hamburger yesterday at Fuddruckers - the first in a year and a half!). So that may have somehow contributed to my low energy, and resulted in lazy running or somethin. Who knows. I'm off to finish off my Fazoli's lasagna, and hopefully these danged shoes will perform better tomorrow -- I was planning on wearing them Sunday--
