Another big step in my commitment to serious mileage #Running #HokaOneOne

Dear James, Daniel and Emily

I didn't expect to do this. And just like the point that if you had told me I would be running 15-20 miles a week I would have laughed. I never thought I would spend this kind of money on a pair of shoes. But today I did, I went on my lunch break to my new favorite place: The Colorado Running Company (note the new reflective vest I got for free by mentioning them on Facebook), I picked up a pair of Hoke One One Bondi B running shoes.



There they are, notice the lack of gold plating or jet packs that you would expect of shoes that cost this much to have. But hey, I am very confident that they will be well worth it. And I can't wait to strap them on tomorrow morning and take off.

On a side note, I was really proud of a little moment that occurred when I picked up the shoes. In the past, I would have taken the long trip on lunch break as a reason to pick up some fast food instead of eating my left overs. But no, I barely even thought about it, I just came back to work, heated up my food and slammed it down like a good boy.
