A bimbo
Been looking for a pair of running shoes after I start getting “needles and pins” under my sole after long run. I absolutely adore my previous chic GEL Cumulus VII and tempted to get one exactly like this.

Alas, the succeeding GEL Cumulus VIII is much uglier and not to mention the unappealing colors they have here in Malaysia. Why can’t Asics be as fashionable as Adidas or Nike?? After searching high and low for it, (thanks to the lack of Asics shop around), I finally fall in love with this ASICS Gel-DS Trainer® XI (RM399).

But you see, this particular model is for racing. The fact that it’s for long distance racing means it has to be very light; which literally translate to less cushioning and padding. My heels have been very prone to sprain which means my dream of running in this beauty dashed into pieces. :(
Next, I found this green Asics Gel Kayano XIII (RM599) very irresistible.

It’s so comfy when I tried it on that I thought I must get it. Nevertheless, I come to realize that comfortable as it is, it’s not for my high-arched feet. Everything fitted well except the midsole portion. So I’ve to let her go with a heavy heart.
