Big feet need pretty shoes too!!

For most of my life I have had large feet. I don't know at what point my feet surpassed the average foot size, but they definitely have. I generally wear an 11. Sometimes I can fit a 10 and every now and then I have to go up to a 12.

This week I decided to splurge for my birthday (it's coming up in a few weeks and mom already gave me b-day money) and buy new running shoes. I've been considering the Nike Free Runs. They are by far more than I have paid for a pair of tennis shoes since I was in elementary school and wanted name-brand shoes. But I decided it's my birthday and an investment. So I spent the $100 (with tax and shipping) and ordered the Free Runs.

I say I ordered them because after going to every athletic shoe store in the mall, I realized that I would have to order the shoes because I needed a 12 and most shoe stores stop stocking cute athletic shoes around size 10. Boo!! Big feet need pretty athletic shoes too!!!



The picture makes them seem a little reddish/orange, but they are actually hot pink and gray. And I am super impressed by the speed of nike.com. I ordered the shoes late on Tuesday night and they are on my feet now! Yay!!!! Now I'm gonna need to go run this afternoon!!

Until then......
