Spreadin' the good news
It's a good feeling when you help someone else take steps to improve their lives. For two years, I did this for my church. Now, I'm doing this for the physical benefits that running provides. Today at lunch, instead of going for a run, I went with a friend to Salt Lake Running Company, to get fitted and gait analyzed for his first pair of running shoes. (In case you're curious, he ended up with a pair of Adidas Adistar Control, that were on clearance, no less). He's on week 2 of the Couch to 5K program. I've almost got him convinced to do an actual 5k race sometime this summer as the crowning achievement to his new-found dedication to fitness. Almost.

I tried to convince a friend to let me do the same with the running gait at a running store, but they weren't so into the idea...thought it made running "too scientific"....lame-o for them haha
They change their tune when shin splints start to rear their ugly head...
