New Zumba Shoes!

I have been in serious need of new Zumba shoes, friends.  My old ones had really seen better days.  I have been waiting for these babies to arrive for four long weeks!  I like to design my shoes on NikeID.  They cost a little more, but you can pick out all the colors and you can even add a personalized message to the shoes!  Take a look at my new shoes…

I love them and taught my first class in them tonight and they were wonderful.  These are the newest version of the Nike Free.  It’s actually a running shoe, and I love them for running, too.  But they are a great shoe for Zumba!

Check out the message I added…

Yes!  XCouch Potato!  Had to reflect the blogger side of me in my shoes.  :)  I was sad that Nike decided to take the personalized message off the heel and put it on the tongue of the shoe.  You can’t see it as well. 

I am on day 6 of my 60 for 31 challenge!  Today I completed 60 minutes of dance-fitness as I taught Zumba.  The most FUN way to exercise!  I have to confess that yesterday I had a slight slip-up.  We had dental visits for Sadie and me, which kept our afternoon busy.  I only got in a 35 minute walk.  :(

However, it was a great walk and I am choosing to look at it in the positive light and just say, “Well, at least I got 30 minutes in!” 

AND… my little girlie had a wonderful first visit to the dentist.  She got all kinds of goodies like a toothbrush, kids flosser, sparkly toothpaste, and more.

She was so proud!  (And so was I!)

Well, that’s a quick look at how my week has started off.  So far, so good!  How is your week going?
