Cape Cod

This week I have been in Chatham, MA on Cape Cod attending meetings with New Balance. Yes, this is the view from my room. Running specialty dealers from all over the country have come here to meet with New Balance.

We have been shown the 2012 and 2013 shoes. We have seen the Fall 2012 apparel. We have also met with the folks who design all of these.

It is easy to come away from meetings like this with a "drinking the KoolAid" feel. the honest truth is I like what I see New Balance doing with the upcoming shoes, and will be happy to bring them out to customers. Many thanks to my bosses for allowing me to come out here.

On the running side of things, I have run two very short runs, up and down the hills of Chatham by the water. It is stunning here, and I have loved running here. My legs and feet may not forgive me though.

Now I focus on next week's marathon. I will be counting down the days.

In the meantime....I am enjoying one last evening on the Cape.
