After running the Denver marathon (10/19/08) I bought some brooks. Got fitted by runner's roost and all that. Didn't do any long runs in those shoes until a month after the marathon, and realized they made my knees hurt whenever I did a run more than 3 miles. Bah! So those shoes are a no go now.
For my Birthday my mom has offered to buy me new running shoes and registration into the 2009 boulder marathon!
My old shoes that I ran the Denver marathon in are pretty totalled. They were pearl izumi peak, I thought they were great shoes. More of a trail running shoe though. I made it though the Denver marathon in them though so that's gotta say something about them!
My mom bought me some pearl izumi streak shoes which are supposed to be like the cousin of the peaks I had. The peaks are just more for road running which is what I'm doing. So I'm pretty excited they should be here any day now!
The Boulder Marathon Bouldermarathon.com is September 20, 2009. I've started using Hal higdon's plan for the marathon, I'd like to do the Denver marathon as well which is almost a month after the Boulder marathon and he talks about doing marathons within a month from each other so hopefully it can work.
Anyone else here doing either of these marathons?
