314th New Thing - Ran in Brooks Trance


Brooks
I bought a pair of Brooks running shoes online last week and wore them to run 3 miles today. Brooks Sports, Inc. designs and markets performance running shoes, apparel, and accessories for men, women, and kids worldwide. It offers neutral, guidance, support, control, trail, and competition running shoes; tops, shorts, long sleeve tops, sports tanks and bras, skirts, outerwear, and tights and pants; and accessories, such as socks, hats, gloves, and bags. The company also provides shoes with smart cushioning systems that instantaneously adapts to a runner’s unique biomechanics, weight, pace, gait, and surface; and biodegradable running shoes. It sells its products through dealers in the United States and internationally. The company was founded in 1914 and is headquartered in Bothell, Washington. As of December 30, 2004, Brooks Sports, Inc. operated as a subsidiary of Russell Brands, LLC. On August 2, 2006 Russell officially announced its sale to Berkshire Hathaway.

I bought Brooks Women's Trance 11 in size 9.5 in Shadow/Hibiscus/Black color. The shoe offers a deluxe ride from heel to toe and delivers total plushness in a tailored package. It has been engineered to include all of the top of the line technologies that Brooks has developed over the past few years. A full-length caterpillar crash pad with independent integrated segments provides an exceptionally smooth laydown and a foam constructed saddle conforms to the foot for a custom fit. Runner's World named the Trance 11 their Editor's Choice in the Spring Shoe Guide in their March 2012 issue. These top features can have a positive impact on your running. Sells online at BrooksRunning.com for $140.0. When I put them on they felt great walking around. After running 3 miles, I think they felt a little stiff and need to be broken in more.
What did you do today?

111th New Thing - Took a Zyrtec

When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u
