Salomon Canyon Mid GTX Hiking Shoes - Men's
The weekend's here and you're ready to go. Salomon's Canyon mid GTX hiking boot for men makes trail life easy for long weekends. It's more supportive than a trail runner but less than a heavy-duty backpacking boot – just right for carrying a lighter pack and scrambling around rocks on day hikes. The Gore-Tex waterproof breathable lining means you won't have to worry about soggy feet and the Contragip outsole lends awesome traction.
$99.95 
Those awesum GTX Hikers
Like all Salomon shoes these were comfortable straight out of the box. I purchased this pair a 1/2 size larger to comfortably accommodate an extra inner sole and double socks for longer walks. The quality of the workmanship is still as good as ever. Whether working to work or walking the hills these are good boots. Whether working to work or walking the hills these are good boots.

Training Tips
Proper hydration for a run includes drinking 30 - 45 minutes before you start and about a cup every 10 - 15 minutes while running.
One of the best ways to win a running race is to win it in your mind first. Visualize yourself running and winning that important race. The more often you do this, you will start to "feel" the race. Your heart will get pumping and your body will feel the effort required to get the job done.
Be serious about getting and staying in shape. Create a written plan that outlines the steps you are taking and the expected result by a certain date. Review your plan frequently and adjust as necessary. Do what it takes to get what you want.
Buy running gear made with performance fabrics - Supplex, Coolmax, Lycra, Goretex - that allow for full range of motion.
