Fetish?

Even though Carrie Bradshaw might not approve of them, I'm loving my squeaky pair of Brooks Adrenaline 9s!

As previously mentioned, I've had three pairs of Brooks Adrenaline 8s. And, not to be a shoe brand snob, but it seems that Brooks fit the shape of my feet and feel right. For me, Brooks are not too cushiony (ie- Saucony) and not too light (ie- Nike). I also dig the Brooks slogan: Run happy. Of course, other people have different preferences about running shoe brands.

I decided that it was time for a new pair and thought I should upgrade to the newest model- the Adrenaline 9. Fortunately, running warehouse had that model on sale :) I'll probably end up ordering another pair soon because if you stockpile a shoe you really like, you don't have to worry about shoe shopping a couple months (and a couple hundred miles) down the road.

I have to admit that I think the grey/coral colors (which Brooks calls calypso!) are fun and pretty. My calypsos remind me of a Carribean steel drumming group, so they should be groovy on runs, especially those loooong marathon training runs!!
