Remember these?
They have carried my feet up/around Moose Mountain twice, PR'd with me on a 10k,
and been with me through lake trails/swamps, and more-than-I-can-count morning runs.
Now
I'm not saying I'm leaving them for anyone/thing else, but I guess I have to confess to two-timing.
I went Christmas shopping and came home with these new beauties:
*happy sigh*
I know you shouldn't base your happiness on material things,
but I can't help but smile when I pass my new Trail shoes.
Light as a feather, pretty awesome colors,
and just calling for me to take them out!
Yeah, I see Happy Trails ahead for me and my new~found partners.
I am finally finalizing my Race Schedule for 2012,
and YES!
I clicked the submit button on a Half Ironman, an actual real-live Marathon,
and as soon as it opens, a 185km Tour d'Alberta cycle, and a Mountain Marathon.
There's a few more too...which can be found HERE on my Journey To Tri blog.
Now that I bought my Christmas gift early....
(sorry, had to look at them again;))
...I guess I had better finish up for the others:D
{5 more sleeps my kiddos tell me.....}

Great looking new kicks you got there! Good thing you took a photo because I'm sure that's the best they will ever look. :-)
(I'll forgive you this time for being a slacker. I suppose your excuse is valid. LOL)
I hope you enjoy all your trails in those fab new shoes! The next few days will probably fly by. Have a great Christmas week:)

Nothing feels as good as a new pair of running shoes! good luck with all your races in the coming year. I'm working up the nerve to sign up for my first marathon....Yikes! We'll see! :)
Nice Runners.
Whoa, you'll be passing people because they'll be distracted by your cool shoes.
Looking forward to following your competition adventures next year.
hurray for new shoes! they look great! as do you wearing them, i'm sure!
Oh dear, am I the only one feeling a bit bad for the 'oldies'...? ;)
Happy running!
hmmm...i'm embarrased my tennis shoes aren't very worn out after a couple of years! :( i need to get on that!
Wow, those are awesome! I don't run (especially not in my current state haha) but I am ENVIOUS of those. Those shoes will take you far next year.
Merry Christmas!
Wow can you believe some people get that excited with a new car:)?
They are awesome wow looks like they are going to be busy. Way to go. B
Those Nike's should help you fly down any path you choose. I'm guessing you won't be able to wait five more sleeps to try them out.
Those are beauties...I need to get a new pair of hiking shoes this year. I should have thought about them being a Christmas gift.
Beauties for sure. I know you will enjoy them.
*whistle* those babies are hot! Dawn, you totally make me want to work out. I started P90X2!! I can manage X2, but I can't even imagine doing the events you do.

Love the header too
Love and Light
Cool shoes (is that a good thing in the cold north?)
now those are awesome shoes...can see why you bought them.....
You won't miss those coming at you! I hope their speedy.
By the sounds of it the others were worn out, look like 'Go-fast shoes'
Very nice - I'm glad you got something for yourself!
These win prizes simply for their colors! Don't comfortable walking shoes just beat all in the happy department?
Hearing your childrens excitement for the holiday is fun. Happy holidays to you and your family.It has been a lovely year sharing.
Go get em friend!!
Snazzy! I hope you win every event! :)
Cute shoes! You're running two marathons in 2012?!? Wow!
Now that there......is a REAL woman. Knows what she wants and goes for it! Love the shoes and hope many get a good look as you pass them by.
You are inspiring me to at least get a decent pair of shoes and start running...maybe. I need to start with a 5K!
The difference between worn out and new shoes are a huge difference...Kudos for getting ready for your marathon
Good shoes are a must no matter what we do in life. In fact I could use a new pair myself.
Yay for new shoes!! I just got a pair of trail running shoes too! Woohoo!
Very nice! It's amazing how light they are these days...
All those wonderful days ahead. :O) Have a wonderful Christmas
