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!

    Anyone else think she looks amazing in that video?

      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!

    Those are some sweet looking shoes! My ideal pair would be a combo of red and purple 🙂

    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!

    LOVE the shoes!!! the color is perfect! if i designed a pair of running shoes it would either be the multi color bright or orange and pink!

    Hi Heather:

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

      oh fun!!! hopefully I will be wearing mine then, too!

    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!

  14. Liz @ Southern Charm says

    September 20, 2012 at 1:53 pm

    Purple and gold. Let’s geaux Tigers!!

    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 🙂

  18. Amy Brich says

    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.

    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. 🙂

BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 I drove the same Toyota 4Ru BACKSTORY TIME! 🚘 

I drove the same Toyota 4Runner for 14 1/2 years. Last October, we got a good deal on a Highlander platinum with 10,000 miles on it from @foxtoyota. 

The only problem is, I wanted the Grand Highlander platinum, because it has way more cargo room, legroom, and some other features that the regular Highlander doesn’t have. I thought that’s what we were getting, but it wasn’t available and we ended up with the regular Highlander, which don’t get me wrong, I was very grateful for after driving the same car for so long.

However, as the months went on, the differences were very noticeable, especially with how much we travel and the lack of space. Without me knowing, Bobby had been doing research and working with the wonderful folks at Fox, and was able to find us a brand new Grand Highlander platinum. 

He had hoped it would arrive for my birthday, but it was a couple weeks late, which was totally worth it. He’s usually really bad at surprising me (my 40th birthday party a couple weeks ago was supposed to be a surprise, but I found out.) so I was truly in shock and speechless when I came home and this new car, which we named Ruby, was in the garage!

@bobbymontg may not be the most romantic guy, but he shows his love in ways that he knows I appreciate. Best birthday gift ever! 🩷

While grabbing a few things at Walgreens, I picked up a Kohl’s gift card and turned it into the cutest teacher gift — a mason jar wrapped in ribbon, full of pencils with a tag that says “This year is going to be on point.” 🎯 

It’s simple, thoughtful, and super practical — because who doesn’t love a gift they can actually use? 

Walgreens makes it so easy to grab @incommpayments gift cards for everyone on your back-to-school list — from teachers to even yourself (because let’s be real, moms need a win too 😉).
