I just got new running shoes yesterday and I'm really happy because I completely wore out my current pair. I wanted to just donate the old ones right away. (The one in, one out rule). I currently have three pairs but want only two in my closet. However, I decided to keep the old ones until I put about 20- 30 miles in the new shoes and they loosen up a little. I have a 10k coming up soon and a half marathon in September - by then these shoes should be in perfect shape.
The only thing was that I discovered I need new running socks. My old ones are too short for the new Nikes. I'll use my Under Armour crew socks tonight for a short run (2 miles). The backs of the ankles are higher then my previous running shoes. One pair that I will buy later tonight is the Smartwool Women's PhD® Run Light Elite Micro Socks. It has the Achilles tab to keep the sock in the right place and blister free.
How many pair of running shoes do you have?
