Special Guest: Heather

I go to Rush Running, a local running store, and get a gait analysis. First I put on a neutral test shoe, get on a treadmill, and start running for a few seconds. Then Heather shows me the video and what my feet were doing. I am amazed at how well she ties my shoes. Turns out you need a size larger than your normal size for running. We try a few different shoes in the medium stability range, and I get on the treadmill to make sure they feel good during a workout. I am pleasantly surprised at the price, because online prices are averaging $150, but this shoe is only about $120. I get a headlamp, so I can feel safer when running in the dark. Overall, a good experience. Heather really knows what she is talking about, is able to answer all my questions, and I feel prepared to continue moving toward better health and fitness.
