Shoes

Dear Diary,

These are the shoes that I live in.  OK, maybe not the cute black ones in the middle.  I do, however own a pair of knee high boots that I totally love.  Meanwhile, I have (from left to right) work shoes, walking shoes, trail shoes, running shoes and mountain bike shoes.  I don't need anymore than that.  I ran my first, ever, 5K race today.  Well, it was more a walk five minutes, run one kind of deal.  Everyone has to start somewhere, right?  My sport of choice is really mountain biking.  So this is my mountain biker's take on my first 5K.  Before:  This will get me in better shape for mountain biking.  It won't be so bad.  I have been swimming for a month now.  No worries.  During:  OMG!  We are running in mud.  I didn't read this on the route description.  My new running shoes are getting dirty.  I should have worn my trail shoes.  How deep is that puddle?  Where did all these hills come from?  I swear I can walk faster than I run.  After:  The beer is free but the mimosa's aren't?  I hate beer.  It costs $11 for a mimosa?  Forget it. . .give me my finisher's medallion.  I'm going home to make my own mimosa!  Oh, and to change my shoes.
