What Makes A Runner Better...The Shoes Or The Runner?

Hey everyone!
So everyone knows that I'm training for my first half marathon and as part of my training I had to buy new shoes. My old shoes were ok, they were a pair of Nike running shoes and they were kind of cute, pretty ok but they gave me horrible shin splints! Like so painful! So I was so excited at first when I realized I was going to get new shoes! I thought I was going to get to go back to Finish Line and pick out some Nike running shoes....my boyfriend had another idea lol

He told me that in order for me to stop getting shin splints I was going to have to get a completely different brand of shoes...I was still ok with that...I was thinking Puma, Adidas, Lacoste brands like that lol

We actually ended up going to a store here in Tulsa called Tulsa Runner and that is where we got my shoes. They are so ugly! So So So ugly! But the good thing about them is that I no longer have shin splints :) I feel amazing after my runs and I don't feel like I have to crawl back to the car when I finish my runs.

Now, I say all of that because this entire video is about being coach able. If I wasn't coach able I would still have my old shoes with shin splints. I didn't really want to get the ugly shoes from the store I had NEVER been to lol, but like I said, I'm coach able so I did it anyway and now I'm so happy that I did because I'm an even better runner than I was!

Being coach able should really be a part of your every day life. It is for me, when I started my home based business I did EVERYTHING my upline told me to do. And because I was/ coach able, I was successful. And that is why I am successful now, because I continue to be coach able.

If you are in high school, college, if you are at a job, or if you have a home based business, MLM, network marketing, pyramid scheme, direct sales, traditional business, online business, whatever you want to call it ;) Or if you are associated with any of these companies... Quixtar, Sango, Pre-Paid Legal, Vemma, CAN, SGR, Costal, fhtm, Road to Riches, VM Direct, Herbal life, 5linx, Isagenix, zrii, goji, ytb, xooma, xango, monavie, freedom rocks, uvme, costal, youngevity, Watkins, vitamark, international, usborne, books at home, silpada sterling silver jewelry, reliv, pampered chef, oxyfresh, muskin, nikken, nht global, melaleuca, mary kay, mannatech, market America, life force, international, freelife, ffsi, financial freedom society inc, eniva, discovery toys, cognigen, arbonne, business opportunity, ameriplan usa, jerky direct, our book business or any other company, you are going to want to be coach able!

Listen to the people that know what they are talking about, because ultimately in the end, you will be better because of it!

[forestranger1234]

yeah i ve had the same problem as you. at a cross country meet, here in fort worth. i got two horrible shin splints, for each leg, and pulled my left hamstring. nike,s are good for looks, and thats prettymuch it. i mainly wear asics when i run, which are about halfway decent looking, and verrrrrrrryy comfy.

[homebasedbiz]

ahh shin splints are the worst, huh! Its about time for me to get a new pair of shoes I think I might try asics this time!

Thanks for the comment! :)

[sthb]

and what size are your nike shoes?

[ArnoldSchwarznigger]

Too long, too boring...

[bitchezzz4life]

so am i a good runner if i can only run 200meters with or with out shoes?

[bitchezzz4life]

u should not stretch befor you run!

because ur stretching a cold muscel, whih could result in tearing somthing. do a dinamic warm up. and stretch after that if u must. ultimatly, u should stretch after a run to release lactic acid :)

[bitchezzz4life]

wen u run u land on each foot with like 8 times ur own weight. after a while that can lead to serious problems sooner or later if u dont have proper support or cushion

Marathons are really for sissies. Pink is not a necessity in running or fitness, but form, biometrics and function, not style and cuteness. Wow, some people are typical morons. What a dork.

What a dork! Pink is a necessity in fitness and running? What a stupid, airhead woman.
