Day 3131 —the Great Shoe Debate: One Runs until 100— with a POND BATHED in warm LIGHT

I have been running in my trail shoes this week and I replaced the laces yesterday because they were bothering me, but with winter socks these shoes just aren’t big enough. I found some yesterday, I like the Speed Goats but the toe box is not great in those. The Altras I have I love but they don’t have them at my local store. Should I buy a size up of the Speed Goats knowing my feet will swell and my big socks will make it more difficult or bring another big pair of shoes instead? 

I don’t know but I have probably bought six pairs of shoes this year alone, so I definitely don’t want to buy another pair right now. 

Almost forgot to write before leaving today because I have so much to do, but I am excited about tomorrow and the next day. And it is my wife’s birthday, so I want to focus on doing things with her tonight, so I will not have a lot of time to do everything else I need to do before tomorrow when I leave. Happy Birthday baby!
