ADDED EVERYONE & their goals!

copy/paste from the other thread but...

just wanted to tell you...

I went to "RoadRunner" and they did one of those analyses...

they took all of these different computerized images of my feet to show my arches, then watched me run, etc. and I got fitted for sneakers...

I was scared they'd be super expensive, but they were only $99!!!!!!!! And all of the analysis is free!

You really should go and get fitted! I definitely would have been wearing the wrong size! I didn't buy the custom inserts, but I tried them on and tried on a non-customized one as well so I know what to get if I end up needing that to support my high arches.

That's awesome about road runner!
Don't know if I'll go because everytime I do cardio I feel as though my lungs will collapse but it's still awesome!

What do you mean? I'm confused! haha

You only run on their treadmill for less than a minute! It was fun. And there was hardly anyone in the store so it wasn't embarrassing or anything! You really just jog.... I was doing 4.0 as the speed.

It's not a custom sneaker. They are regular sneakers, but they find the brand/style that would be best for your feet - KWIM?

The place I went to is called RoadRunner.

The sneakers I ended up buying (they gave me many to choose from!) were Mizunos.

eek, just read my response & it is totally confusing. I meant that I probably wouldn't be able to use the service by road runner because I can't run for very long in general as part of my workout so I won't need sneakers but it's awesome & good to know that they do do that there.

You can go on their website & answer some easy questions - weight, what type of running you'd like to do, high arches or not, whether you favor instep or out, etc. and it'll choose a few shoes that will work for you.

ETA: no stores in NY, but there are some in NJ.
There's also live chat with customer service in picking the right shoe too.

Re: *THE OFFICIAL MOMMY MAKEOVER CHALLENGE!

I'm finally having the time to reply to this!

Diet: Weight Watchers (plus a high protein intake)....1 gallon of water daily

Workout: Cardio- walk/sprint intervals for 35-45min. This is my plan- my friend (a personal trainer) wrote it up for me.... Cardio 4x week- 3 interval days(1 min quick, 1 min comfortable or walk 5 min do 25 squats/lunges and alternate). So, 3 intervals, 1 steady state and 1 day of light "active rest".

Yoga DVD 2xs weekly.

Goal- lose 20 to 30lbs... Feel better, look better. I don't need to be "skinny" I just want to be healthier Chat Icon
