Lance has shin splints and I have new shoes

He's still just yummy, isn't he? 2:45 with shin splints? Yeah, me too.
But I did go for a hard run and get new shoes as mine were spent. The store I went to has you run barefoot on a treadmill to see what's going on with your stride. Fascinating stuff. I didn't know that my arches were falling (as is normal with age) and that's why my shoe size has gone up over the last 10 years. My feet haven't grown, they just take up more space when I'm bearing weight on them. Which means I'm fully justified in buying new hiking boots now too, as it's not just my imagination that they don't fit. Yay.
