New Running Shoes
I treated myself to a new pair of running shoes, the HOKA Bondi 9. They’re super bouncy, yet supportive.
I also tried the HOKA Skyflow, which were even bouncier and more comfortable in some ways, almost like running on clouds. The Bondi's offered a bit more support, which felt like the right choice for me, at least for now.
It’s amazing what a good pair of shoes can do for your motivation. I’m actually looking forward to the next run, and that says a lot.
I went to a local running shop for advice.
