New shoes 😁

Lovely hubby bought me running shoes for Christmas. Can't try 'em out yet because I'm on the IC, but just the thought of them sitting proudly in their box waiting for me is a great tonic.

Happy running, happy resting and happy Boxing Day folks :)

Oh now these are very very smart. Can't wait to hear you're off the IC and back out there again. It's tough being a couch potato, isn't it! 😊 I keep looking down at my beauties, they're in the kitchen, muddy, but they keep winking at me, saying "come on Floss, we know you want to wear us!" And they're so right! Happy Boxing Day!

It's amazing how motivating new shoes are, isn't it! I was relieved when Mr R wrapped mine up as it removed the temptation to keep peeking at them...! :D

Took mine out yesterday for W6r3 - absolutely fab, and I'm *so* pleased with them! Have you tried yours out yet?

AncientMumGraduateβ€’ in reply toRainbowC

So pleased for you! Haven't tried mine yet. I'm getting over a really nasty chest infection, so daren't risk it just yet. Hoping to be ok for a New Years Day run -I do like to start the year as I mean to carry on! x
