The Size 15 Runner sheepishly lists the top 5 reasons why the release of new running shoes is eerily similar to the release of new albums (reasons 1-5 just may shock you); he shares his questionable Running Rules: The Rules of Running: The Ultimate, Definitive, Absolutely Most Trustworthy Guide to Running; and he describes why the track is a runner’s playground (minus the fights at recess).

• How New Shoes and Albums are Similar: Recently, I was eagerly anticipating the release of a new album from one of my favorite artists. It got me thinking about how the wait for the release feels eerily similar to the thrill of a pair of new running shoes releasing.

Running on a track is monotonous, predictable, and basic—three adjectives that also describe me—which is exactly why I’ve come to love it.

• The Definitive Running Rules: Rules are made to be broken, but not The Size 15 Runner’s Running Rules: The Rules of Running: The Ultimate, Definitive, Absolutely Most Trustworthy Guide to Running. The only thing you’ll be breaking by following The Running Rules: The Rules of Running: The Ultimate, Definitive, Absolutely Most Trustworthy Guide to Running …is PRs.
