Unboxing

After the slightly ominous post yesterday, it is time for something much lighter, namely the unboxing of my new Nike Odyssey React Shield that finally arrived with UPS today. While Umeå may not be Gothenburg, it does rain sometimes and I do not want that to keep me away from running so I decided to invest in the very last pair of these water repellent shoes in size 47. My plan is to use them for all those wet and cold autumn days that lie ahead, especially if I am to stay on track with Strava’s new “Escape Plan” and run five days a week through September. As for the colour, I would definitely have preferred the black and grey ones but, in size 47, one does not have the luxury of being picky.
