So I manged to run 3 miles in about 34 minutes last night. Neither the distance nor the time is anything that anyone would like even want to admit to - that's nothing to you regular runners. But I did it in my snazzy new size 14 (yup, 14!) 4E wide Etonics. Man, they are great! - Almost 260 pounds of pure pounding flubber and my feet weren't even screaming. 'Sneakers' sure have changed since I was a wee tad - these new shoe technologies are world's biggest secret to comfortable feet.

 Please, y'all be very, very nice and support the wonderful people who work in your neighborhood running store, as they can make all the difference in the world!
