Cooler misty conditions today on the lake so it was road trip time to Tuggerah. I finally managed to locate A-Mart and commenced my search for the fabled Landreth.
I found the Landreths which was great but was a little disappointed to see the sale price was $129 (Miners got them much cheaper) but I picked up the last pair in my size and also the last pair of Nimbus 7 in my size at $116 - when I went through the checkout the girl scanned them pressed some buttons and said "$60 please" - I asked her if she was sure and she said "yes", I asked her again and she looked at the receipt rolled her eyes a bit and said "yeah" with that God I'm so over this job look - so who was I to argue? $400+ worth of shoes for $60!!!
So thanks Miners & Myrtle for pointing me to A-.Mart and I absolutely love the Landreths. I got Mrs 2P to drop me at the Chain Valley Bay turnoff and made my way home via a circuitous route on the bitumen (mostly) - LOL this is because I didn't want to get the new Landreths dirty :-) Because they are lighter I want to keep them for racing.
I was happy with 10k in 56.01 (av 5.36) in new shoes and over some big hills. I'm intending to do a very long run on the weekend, so probably won't run again till then.
I'm missing reading other blogs but I do think of you guys often - happy training.

You are truly blessed 2P - you must be doing something right ;)
I'm so glad you're making the most of your treasured time off work.
Just where is this fabled A-Mart that is giving away shoes!?!? What a pity both were the last pair in your size.
PS See, bitumen is goooood.
PPS We're thinking of you too 2P :-)
I want to go shopping there too!! Well the thing is that it is some far...
I want to hear about that long run!
LOL, you aren't missing much ;-)
m2P dont go praising the bitumen where Tesso will read it - we are all trying to convince her to do more trails this year!!!!!
Sounds like you got a bargain. I will have to have a look at A-Mart and see what else they have left...
BARGIN!!!! Now that would be a shoppers high! I wish I was on holiday!!! YOu are missed... when are you back?
I so love a bargain - you done good!
Another Landreth convert! Great to see mate - but don't you dare get injured in them or I'll be too ashamed to look you in the eye again.
(and yes, good move - don't want to get the pretty red shoes dirty!)
hope you had a good xmas and nye! Just catching up on blogs now I'm back from the UK!

Never heard of Landreths, 2P! Seems everyone bar me knows about them! ....I hate being out of fashion! I've just bought my first trail runners & have been putting off wearing them because they'll get dirty on the trail! Tomorrow, I hope to have enough courage to do so...or maybe I'll just carry them instead! Oh dear, I do have a problem!!
