After I had my first child I really wanted to start walking to get back in shape and to also get out of the house.  Before I knew it the walking had turned into running and I have been doing it ever since.  I am now in very good shape and dislike it immensely if I miss one of my morning runs.  I have several different pairs of running shoes in different colors and styles.  For my birthday my husband got me a really nice pair of grey and pink Asics Nimbus with a jogging outfit to go along with it.
