I thought I'd test my running shoes to see if I went sliding everywhere and to my complete surprise they didn't budge! Two things crossed my mind:hmm looks like I'm going to have to run for 25 minutes and secondly aha! but will I slip when running? Wow what an exhilarating run. Kept an eye on the path(I run round a park) to take care on any slippy bits and did it! Slower than usual but didn't fall and that was the important bit! Quite a few runners out and I was scanning their soles for spikes/yaktrax but didn't see any. I did find the cold air hard to breathe in, but not uncomfortable. Even managed to sing along to a song and felt the stares of people thinking, she's crazy and running in this!!!
Finally Laura said that's it,stopped walking and promptly skidded!! The irony, anyway only a little bit. So to think I wasn't even going to bother, and just order the spikey things. If anyone else has 'Adidas Response 19 cushion,' the good news is they do not slip. Hurray!!!
I'm shattered now
