More racing flats

Last weekend's trip to the Nike Employee Store netted two pair of racing flats.

The bright-yellow pair is for shorter distances, and I tried them out at Sunday's Old-Fashioned Fest 5K. Brad also convinced me to get this hot-pink pair for longer distances - 10Ks and possibly a half:

I tried them out last night on the treadmill. They are incredibly light but definitely more cushy than the yellow ones. I did an easy 3.6 miles.

Actually, it wasn't that easy. I waited until after dinner, and I was kinda burpy and pukey the whole time. It reminded me why I usually run in the AM or afternoon.

Still, I sweated it up and got 'er done.

Excited for my new kicks :)
