Run Tex


For those of you who live in Austin, TX, you might walk at least once at town lake. So let me share a short story...

Last Monday I decided to go to Town Lake to run/walk for seven miles. I wore my one and a half years old sport shoes to do that.

After running the first four miles, I can feel a tremendous pain in my feet that was killing me, but I didn't give up. I continued and finished my seven miles with only one objective in mind: stop at Run Tex on my way back home and get new Running shoes.

When I got to the store located at Lake Austin Boulevard, a very kindly gentleman asked me: "Do you need help with anything?" and my answer was "I need new running shoes." I explained to him that I was just running and walking with my old shoes and that those shoes were killing my feet. He asked me to take my shoes off and measured my feet from long and width. He also asked me to walk for him and found out that I needed arch support on my running shoes. After discovering all that, He brought to me like six or seven running shoes that could be of great benefit to enhance my runs. I fell in love with the first pair of shoes! I tried all of them but the most wonderful running shoes were the first one I tried on. The sale person asked me to try them out outside to make sure they were the right running shoes for me and while I was doing it, it just felt very comfortable.

Here are my new running shoes:


I just love them!

So, if you like to run, I highly recommend you to stop by at any Run Tex store to get new comfortable running shoes. :)
