NEW BALANCE 768

NEW BALANCE 768

I am sad to say that my favorite pairs of shoes are worn out. Its especially haunting as the line has been discontinued. Heading to the New Balance store to try the new model 769. I've looked online for 768, but my weird shoe size aren't to be found.

I enjoyed these shoes so so much, I gave up Nike shoes and Nike +, which never really fit me right but had awesome software.

July 13 update - I originally meant to post this last week but I'm one lucky mug.

Endless.com has free shipping to Hawaii. Not to mention the $99 shoes.. were only $55. Not only that, if you spent over $100 you get $25 off... so I spent $85 on 2 brand new shoes.

I heart Endless.com and I heart New Balance.

The Power of A Dollar

THE POWER OF A DOLLAR

I am fundraising for the 2009 Honolulu Marathon and I thought I would try something different.

Instead of asking for large donations, $1 is all I ask and to spread the word.

Recession

RECESSION

We all probably know all the bad things going on in the world; so I'll quickly talk about the good things I have noticed with the recession.

The major thing I have experienced is the shopping experience. Customer service agents are 200% nicer than last year.

I went to Toys R US and was asked if I needed help 5 times in about 10 minutes.

Hopefully the level of customer service keeps up when our economy recovers.

Another Year

ANOTHER YEAR

Yes. Today, I am another year older.

Another year wiser? probably not. Another year richer? definitely no.

I might not be financially well off, but I am fortunate in so many other ways. I am the healthiest and fittest I have ever been. I am the happiest I have ever been. Finding a happy medium between spending time with others and my time alone.

What am I going to accomplish the next year? Who knows. I enjoy staying free and unpredictable.

Maybe a job in South America. Maybe going back to uni. Maybe selling everything I own and going around the world.

Another Race.

ANOTHER RACE

This past Sunday, I participated in the 3rd Annual Hibiscus 1/2 Marathon which all the funds go to Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

I haven't been training in running long distances and I hadn't exercised since the Honolulu Triathlon so my expectations were to take it east and run 10 minute miles.

I was very happy to finish. It was extremely hot.

I finished with a time of 2:06. I'm very happy with my time. Granted the winner came in at 1:10... lol

Off to the next race!
