Shoe of the Month ~ August

I've been trying to take my mind off a few things & I thought what a better way to do that then with a post about shoes.

This month I decided to go a different way. Since I've been doing Insanity now for a little over a month & will be starting a nutrition program after meeting with a nutritionist a few weeks ago (details to follow later) I'm a little more on the athletic track. I bought some new cross trainers this week because my Aasic running shoes really started hurting my feet, specifically my arches & the balls of my feet. After some research online I realized that the workout I've been doing should really be done with cross trainers, not running shoes. Go figure! I've never bought a pair of cross trainers & I'm really hoping they make a huge different in my workout performance - always looking to get better.
Dan & I went over to Dick's to check out what they had. I really didn't know what brand I wanted but knew that I wanted something girlie (of course)....well, you can't get any girlier than these:

Reebok RealFlex Transition Performance. Yes, I went with Reebok; the last time I bought a pair of these was high school basketball - maybe even middle school basketball. The bright colors were what first attracted me but once I tried them on I was hooked. The tread on them is fantastic for jumping (yes I was doing some Insanity moves while I was in the store) & they're so light. When Dan saw them on he even commented, "Wow, they look just like you." I'm so glad I found them & that I am now foot pain free. Bring it on Sean T.
