Rejoice in National Running Day 2012: Why do you run?

Did you run today?  No excuses. It’s National Running Day. Yippee! Call me biased but I think every day running should be celebrated.

I celebrated the day by taking my two work colleagues to run hills on the Riverbend ski trails. We had a great go. They were hesitant to come out with me because I am such a slave driver. Ha! But in the end they had smiles on their faces. Bonus!
I wore my vibrams for the first time in two years. They felt amazing. Why did I stop wearing them? I need to give those little five fingers a true chance. 
I loved feeling the grass and the dirt under my feet. Slipping on the mud? Not so much. I need a new pair of sneakers. I’m done with my red ruby Mizunos (Wave Rider 15). I had blisters on my right foot. I think that’s one of the reasons why my left side of my body was so messed up. Maybe I was compensating for the weirdness happening in my right sneaker?

Anyway the hunt is on for a new pair of sneakers. So what do you think? Nike Free? Saucony?
