But then my mom and I added the yellow laces because they are our "race laces." And you're right, these are the first shoes that haven't affected my shins at all.

I have pretty much a perma-callus on the right inside ball of my foot from all the blisters that I used to get from my Brooks Adrenalines.

I REALLY wanted some neon orange or yellow ones, but got stuck with pink instead. That's why I added the yellow laces, which conveniently coordinated with the Mizuno stripe. But yep, I am not the biggest fan of pink and got stuck with these ones. I really want the light blue ones next time :) ha!Annelise Rowehttp://www.auniesauce.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047315763557909947.post-43811089445608045332013-09-12T16:28:05.127-06:002013-09-12T16:28:05.127-06:00Yes, check out the Miznunos, but also be so specif...Yes, check out the Miznunos, but also be so specific about what you're looking for :) Try a whole bunch of stuff!

I thought they looked like clown shoes... they were so ugly. I think I love them now that they are so good for running... plus I run in the dark half the time, so I can't see them anyway.

You can definitely get a feel when you bounce around in them like that :) I just find it funny when people either A> won't try on a shoe because of how it looks, or B> try it on and only walk over to the mirror to see how it looks. I get that for heels/flats, etc... but not running shoes :) So glad you love your Saucony's!!Annelise Rowehttp://www.auniesauce.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047315763557909947.post-85736183212190509262013-09-12T16:23:34.050-06:002013-09-12T16:23:34.050-06:00Thanks Kate!
