The Difference with new Sneakers

I have to say I know that it sounds naive but I just never realized the difference a new pair of sneakers can make in my work out routine.
I should be ashamed to admit this but amazingly I am not....I have always bought sneakers that were cute and made me feel pretty. Since shoes is one of the few things in my attire that my size does not make me stress I allowed myself these luxuries. So when my last pair started to wear down ( I had them for a year) and my exercise routines started to get more intense I decided to do what I do best...research. What can I say I am a dork? I wanted to know what was the best shoe for me. I discovered words like "Over pronation" and so forth. Which of course I am. I checked on several sneakers and read lots and lots of reviews and settled on a pair. When I went to buy them at Sports Authority I realized I had a 1/2 size too big of a shoe and I adored my new Asics. I could definitely feel a difference but had NO idea that it would encourage my body to JOG!!!!
I got on the treadmill thinking I looked extra cute and usually I do 3 minute intervals of jogging and I started and just couldn't stop. I felt like I was on a cloud. Of course I realize that it is not just about my sneakers BUT I just couldn't believe the difference.

New sneakers are the BEST! I love when I get a new pair and I feel like I can light the world on fire. Who knew a pair of shoes that isn't high heels could make us so happy :-)0

I work part-time at Nine West...so you can imagine the shoe freak I am!
Heels just have a way of giving you an extra OOMFFF! Its almost like new sneakers let you know you can conquer the world and a new pair of red pumps let you know you can prance on it0
