Bolder Boulder
The 33rd Memorial Day 10K Bolder Boulder is fast approaching! You have exactly one week to prep for the festiviteis on May 30th. While for some that might mean building/sewing/shopping for a costume, others might want to think about buying and breaking in some new shoes especially for the bid day.
Runners/Joggers
The Newbalance MR770 Light Stability trainer for men and women provides support and security in a lightweight, airy package. It features ABZORB technology for impact resistance and a medium arch to accomodate a wide range of foot types. Remove the footbed and add your Superfeet for a custom fit. Know the freedom of not having to focus on your feet as you race through Boulder!
Barefoot Runners
For those who want to free themselves from the chunk, you'll want to try the popular Vibram Bikila LS or the Merrell Trail Glove, depending on your style. Both free you from the bonds of cushion and padding to allow a down-to-earth, life changing experience with running. For women, see the Vibram Bikila LS (pictured above) and the Merrell Pace Glove. Start training now - you'll only be able to run one or two miles at first in these minimalist shoes!
Walkers/Sightseers
For female walkers, your best option is the running-inspired walking shoe, the Walking Fitness, from New Balance. Flexibility, support, and comfort combine in this running-style shoe to stabilize the foot and help you walk with less fatigue. For men, try the Saucony Grid 3. Stable yet light, this trainer might even inspire a casual trot to the finish line...if your costume allows it, that is.
Bolder Boulder is the perfect race to see what a new pair of shoes can do for your walking or running (or dance-walking, or skipping)! Find running/walking shoes now and enjoy your Memorial Day Weekend!
