I was lucky when I got my Wildcats: they had them in stock. You can order online from MEC with in-store delivery, that way you don't have to ship them back if they don't fit. I also saw some sweet Inov8 shoes at RunningFree up in Markham.<br /><br />Congrats on your Mile, must be nice to be in front! See you in Haliburton.JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01000545672867444826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831613295895512847.post-52630234214593705602009-08-19T10:24:18.003-07:002009-08-19T10:24:18.003-07:00I love your sense of humor!!!! 50k to 50m - whoa!!...I love your sense of humor!!!! 50k to 50m - whoa!!!
