I just bought these little babies and I can't wait for their arrival! If you've been following for awhile, you know about my ankle problems. But if not- I'll fill you in. Here's the short story: cheerleading injury in 2001, surgeries in 01/02/04/09. I'm currently in physical therapy here at Vanderbilt, and there's still a lot of things that I struggle with. For instance: grocery shopping at Walmart. While I love their low prices, I hate the concrete floor and always-broken carts. Normally shopping there leaves me propped up on the couch with an ice pack. Running. I always thought people who loved to run were crazy, now I'm one of those people. Running gives me such a fantastic high, and I feel great about my body. Not so fantastic? Wanting to carry around my leg the next day. At the risk of sounding whiny, I'll stop the story here.
Needless to say, shoe comfort is at the top of my list. Merrell's are great shoes for anybody who's experienced an injury, or just wants really comfortable shoes. My mom is a huge fan too! I just ordered my 2nd pair. I like that the taupe will go with black or brown, and they're comfortable without looking too rugged.
Do any of you have a persistent injury that impacts your everyday life? How do you deal and not let it get you down?
