My Deuter Pulse Three

I was actually looking for a Nathan Speed 2, a two flask racing belt, but Toby's MOA only had the 1 flask version (i think it was the Speed 1). I was lucky though because the sales lady suggested that i try the Deuter brand on the far end of the alley and this baby caught my eye. It has a bottle holder and four pockets; two mesh pockets on each sides, a vertical pocket for shades and a fairly big utility pouch at the back.

Using this at my runs I could bring 2 cellphones, a shirt and mini-towel and a 1 liter water bottle (no, i don't actually run with bottle at my hip).

It has an elastic chord on the utility pouch and 3M reflective elements

My Nike Lunarglide +2 (Chlorine Blue + Wolf Gray version)

I got this sweet pair of Nike stability shoes from RUNNR last March 27, 2011 as a preparation for my first 5k event which was the highly successful Hyundai Run For a Cause. Event photos are available here.

The first time i saw this chlorine blue shoes, i already fell in love with it. but, i thought that i should first at least have my Gait Analyzed to have the best running shoes based on my anatomy.

Luckily, the Lunarglide gave the best over-pronation correction of all the three shoes I tried (they let me try an Adidas and a Mizuno).

I am running with this pair for over two months and i have gone to love it so much to the point that i am using it as my daily walking shoes. My feet feels very pampered when i am using the lunarglide 2 because of its dynamic support and cushioning that my feet now gets sore whenever i use my "flat" walking shoes. I hope that this shoe will last torture these upcoming months as i am now training for longer races.

In conclusion of my first blog post i am leaving you guys with an inspirational running quote:

Life is short... running makes it seem longer.
