Day 207 - Getting Ready, Buying Shoes

I took advantage of having the night off from exercise and ran some errands tonight.  I normally hate to shop, but figured I really needed to buy a pair of new exercise shoes before I leave for my trip to the Biggest Loser Resort.  Can you tell how excited I am about this?

The sad thing is, the lady at the shoe store said that MBT has gone out of business.  It was good for me in that the shoes were on sale.  But, it was so sad to think that I won’t be able to get more.  I never really bought into the whole toning/weight loss shoe thing, but I have always appreciated how good they are for my back and my knees.  Other than being stiff after exercise or from staying in bed too long, I haven’t had a major back problem since I started wearing the shoes.  Now that is saying something.  I will definitely miss them!

The biggest surprise of the day was that I am not as sore after yesterday’s workouts as I expected.  I am guessing it’s because I made sure to spend enough time in the sauna last night.  That’s about the only explanation I can come up with.  But, I will never complain about NOT being in pain.  At least as long as I know I worked my butt off!
