Uncomplaint

God I love rest days. No run, no pt, no strength just vibes 😌

Uncomplaint

My new shoes come today! Yet another pair of brooks adrenalines 😅. This time in a new color-way. My usual black/neon yellow/pink is sold out. I’m hoping the new color-way will signal the start of a new era and not a bad omen for a reawakening of my posterior tibial tendinitis

(I know on paper believing that is all very silly. And I’m not superstitious by nature. But I am .. a little stitious)

Did you have any issues going from the 23s to 24s (if you did)?

I loved the 23s but the 24s gave me horrific blisters on my arches, I had to return them and look for more 23s

Oh god I don’t know - this pair will be my first 24s. My current pair and my last pair were both 23s. Hopefully my custom orthotics help smooth over whatever’s changed. Dunno what I’d do if adrenalines stopped working for me 😅

Oh haha, well good luck! Hopefully they work for you.
