Hmm.. Monday… can’t really tell what the heck I was thinking, but after work today, I started off for a walk. I was wearing skate shoes, and after about 1/2 a mile, my shins where killing me. I mean, like, “OMG, how am I going to get home” kind of killing me. I ended up toughing it out for another mile, and made it home. I was going to change my shoes, but realized that I had tossed my old worn out shoes, and was in terrible need of another pair.

So I took off to “Famous Footwear” where I (yeah, I know this is original) bought the exact same pair of New Balance sneakers that I had before… Putting them on was like a breath of fresh air. My shins no longer ached, and if anyone ever says that shoes don’t matter… I’ll kick them in the head.

I also picked up a nice pair of Nike Basketball shoes..

When I got home, I decided to try my new sneaks out, so I walked another mile and a half. Then I got to talking to my brother on the telephone, and decided, heck, why not walk another mile and a half.

So I ended up walking about 5 miles in total. Some in pain, but most not. Thats got to count for something right? 

Lunch was a chicken salad from “The Original Steakhouse” with a Diet Coke… Dinner was a couple of spoonfulls of peanut butter and some microwavable corn. (ok.. I know its not a great dinner, but heck, I just walked 5 miles.. I’m not about to cook something “sensible”)
