Semi-Wordless Wednesday: New Running Shoes (Sadly)

They stopped making Saucony Hurricanes recently. We knew it was coming, so my wife stocked up 2 years ago. I've been getting a LOT out of my last few pairs because I don't want to let them go.

I posted a year ago about putting over 1,050 miles on my last 2 pairs of running shoes (COMBINED... not all on 1 pair). Well, my last 2 pairs currently have 590 and 743 miles on them for a total of 1334 miles on my last 2 pairs!

So after a PR race at the Brian Kraft 5K, it was time to put these out to pasture:

Blowing out a toe and a side.


So little tread... one of the reasons I've been staying away from slick roads while racing!

I have 1 new pair of Hurricanes left, but it was time to start breaking in a "new" pair of shoes. So here's me in my Brooks Glycerins:

I had 2 easy runs with them after the BK 5K, and then my first harder or longer run was my 12 miler earlier this week. They rubbed 3 toes a little raw, so that sucks. Hoping some more deliberate sock choices will help.

Any leads on men's size 10.5 Saucony Hurricanes? I've been checking eBay.
