These are my new compression socks, well, they are actually compression sleeves — for my legs. They are supposed to do all this wonderful stuff for my legs. Do they work? I’ll find out on Saturday when I do my 20 mile run.
My husband took one look at my socks and did a major eyeroll. Whatever. If he ever runs another marathon I’m sure he’s going to want a pair too.
I think I’m with your husband on this one. Not very fashionable, but like most married people, you probably don’t think in those terms any more (that will get a rise out of someone). Being north of 60 now, I’ve seen many things come and go; with the possible exception of Nehru suites, platform heels, and super bell bottoms, not many took as much guts to wear as the socks you sported.
On the other hand, we knew you had guts from the School Bus saga. Good luck on the marathon (my best was 12 miles about 4 years ago…but I did it two days in a row so I’m counting it as my marathon).
Why didn’t you get a cool color like your brother did? How are we going to find you in the crowd? Sure hope that they make you run faster.
Good luck!!
