It's All In The Shoes

Everything I have read and every runner I have talked to has emphasized getting the right shoes for your feet. I think they may be right. I bought a new pair of shoes, Asics GT-2100, over the weekend. Actually it's the same brand and model I already had just a whole lot newer. Yesterday's run did not leave me with the aching shin splints that I have been plagued with the last couple of weeks. Oh, I hope it is something as easy as a new pair of shoes ... shin splints are not fun!!!
