Shoe Woes Update: Pink Power

September 19, 2012 | fitness, injury, running

 

Y’all, I am so excited. My new ASICS came in Tuesday and I was able to take them out for a spin on Wednesday. It was just a quick three miles, but that’s ok. Thanks for all your help with my shoe woes one and two posts.  Check out how it went in the vlog below, then scroll down to see my sweet new shoes. I am in love!

Don’t forget you can subscribe to my YouTube Channel!

Aren’t they obnoxiously bright? Love them!

Talk about #SweatPink! I wore lots of pink on my run to match my new shoes. Hey, I’m “running with sass” for a reason!

Here is the full running outfit I wore:

QOTD: If you could design a pair of running shoes what colors would they be?

    Love those shoes! I’m glad you chose the Asics, they’ve been my favorites forever! I would design multi-non colored shoes. I bought a pair of New Balance 960s simply because they were so beautiful!

      haha sounds like something I would do!

    Love the pink. I wish that I had an all pink outfit. I have such huge feet I can never find pink ones. So jealous. You run in style for sure!

    • Heather says

      September 20, 2012 at 11:35 am

      you should try the asics!

      She is beautiful. You guys are so cute together. Someday my husband and I will be the healthy together. I need to get there and then I can start helping him! He does love to run with me so that is a bonus. How long have you guys been married?

      • Heather says

        September 20, 2012 at 1:26 pm

        we have been married 5.5 years 🙂 Wow now I feel old!
        You can do it, baby steps!

    Hi Heather,
    they look amazing. I really love the bright pink and it suits you quite well:) I do hope that they don’t cause you any more foot distress!

    Thanks for the update. I just bought these shoes for the Disney Princess Half next February. 🙂

    I don’t know if I have a specific color for shoes, it all depends on the fit for me. I currently have Asics 2170s and they are slate gray with pink and neon green trim. One of my friends absolutely loves pink and I told her if she started running she could have some really pink shoes.

    • Heather says

      September 20, 2012 at 11:33 am

      haha thats good motivation for her!

    I love your blog. I am a pink girl too. I want to get those asics!!! Where do you get all the cute running skirts?

    • Heather says

      September 20, 2012 at 11:30 am

      I used to be a sales rep for runningskirts.com 🙂

    LOVE the brightness! I showcased my new shoes on my site today and they are bright yellow! These colors have been alll the rage lately!

  13. Erin @ Girl Gone Veggie says

    September 20, 2012 at 1:30 pm

    I love your adorable accent! And your shoes are so cute! I love all the pink. Although it shows how new I am to running when you say just three miles and I think girl that’s a big deal! haha I hope these shoes work well for you for your long runs!

    Love the pink shoes.. Sweatpink for sure! I am struggling finding shoes that I am in love with.. Glad you found your pair!

  16. Courtney says

    September 20, 2012 at 2:12 pm

    love the pink! I’m totally on board with all the neon trends right now!

  17. Kasey Shuler @ Well of Health says

    September 20, 2012 at 4:14 pm

    So cute! If I could design my own shoes they would be gray with some nice green neon accents 🙂

    September 20, 2012 at 9:07 pm

    I have those shoes and LOVE them. I have always worn asics and switched to the Nimbus a few years ago…..best decision! I have tried many other brands but they end up in a pile in my closet.

  19. Tina @ Best Body Fitness says

    I have a thing for obnoxiously bright shoes too!

    I’ve been moving back to more neutral shoes and trying out a lower heel to toe drop. I picked up some Saucony Rides and Brooks PureFlow to slowly start adding into rotation with the Lunarglides (which I’ve noticed with longer runs aren’t staying as comfortable for my hips/ITB). Here’s hoping we both find that perfect fit and the changes work magic.

  20. Tabitha says

    September 21, 2012 at 1:42 pm

    Those are the shoes I am getting next! I just bought a pair of Brooks Ghost 5, but I going back for those exact same shoes! I love them, and it was hard to leave them, but I was leery changing shoes so close to a race.

  21. Jeanette K. says

    September 21, 2012 at 5:12 pm

    Are those the Kayano? I’ve been running in my pink ones 🙂 Love your outfit, too. Running always feels better when you’re wearing something cute.

    The QOTD is pretty tough since there are soooo many great running shoe colors out there. The real trick is finding the best shoe with the best color. I wish you could select a style and then have it made with whatever color combo you liked. One can only dream 😀

    • Heather says

      September 21, 2012 at 9:13 pm

      they are the gel nimbus 14’s. 🙂

So many people I know follow and like posts and st So many people I know follow and like posts and stories from content creators, but when it’s people they know in real life….forget about it. All of the sudden, we just don’t need or deserve the support. We just get lurkers. 💔 

Women, I encourage you in 2026 to find a table where women champion other women. And I encourage all the ladies here to be a girl’s girl. There is room for everyone, and we ALL need a little support, even those that look like they have it all together. 

Let’s commit to helping each other on AND offline. A simple smile, an “I love your dress” or “your kid did great in the school play” or “hang in there, you got this!” Goes a long way. 

I will never understand people going out of their way to intentionally bypass a person online or in real life. People matter. It’s a tough time of year for a lot of people, so let’s all act like the friends we claim to be and be there for each other however we can. ❤️

This one is great for busy folks who want to make a “special” drink without too much fuss. 🎄 

It’s literally just water frozen in the bottom of a glass with some rosemary taped in it. I waited a few hours the poured in some Prosecco and added in edible glitter (you can use multiple colors!) pretty and delicious, and keeps your drink cold! Cheers! 🥂 ❄️
