If the Shoe Fits...

During my hunt for a new pair of running shoes, I came across a cool tool I feel I must pass on to my fellow runners.

RunnersWorld Magazine invented an interactive "Shoefinder" which makes finding the perfect pair a snap.

There are three ways to search. You can use their "Shoe Advisor" which asks you 10 questions about your arches, footstrikes, and how many miles you log each week.

Or, if you're like me and just love, love, LOVE your current shoe and can't seem to part with it, you can use their "Shoes Like Mine" tool. Simply enter your current make and model, and voila! they'll serve up 10 pairs that have similar fit and function. How cool is that.

Lastly, if you already have a pair in mind and just want to see how they stack up to others, use the "Advanced Search" and see comparisons on something like 13 different dimensions.

Go to http://www.RunnersWorld.com/ShoeFinder and go to town!

As for my search, I've narrowed down my choices. I know, it's been a couple of weeks. But like so many people out there, I'm busy! Plus, you can't blame a girl for taking so long to decide. Important life decisions like fine wine, men, and running shoes all take time.
