I found a pair of shoes a few hours ago that I believe I’ll be happy hiking in this weekend. North Face Ultra 103 trail runners. Very comfortable and they almost feel broken in. I ran about half a mile over to the office and I just finished up some work, so now it’s time to go home and pack. Woohoo!
I got the shoes at Hudson Trail Outfitters, and spent a couple minutes checking out their bike selection. They had both Rocky Mountain and Specialized bikes, both of which I’ve looked into. I was quite impressed with the selection of Specialized bikes, especially the Stumpjumper Disc, which was selling for quite a bit less than Specialized’s website suggests. I can’t tell you how much though, for fear that you might steal it!
I just checked my gmail account and it turns out the Garmont Nasty’s I talked about in a previous entry are scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Too bad I’ll be gone, I might have liked to have them! Probably not.
How’d the new shoes work out on the weekend!
Very well. I needed a bit more arch support and ended up with a tiny little blister on my big toe at the end, but overall I can’t complain about how they performed for such a short break-in time.
