Chaco Isabella Sandal - Women's
The Chaco Isabella Sandal for Women is a strappy sandal that's not just for looks. The ancient basket weavers were on to something: woven straps offer flexible comfort and consistent support. A Colorado sole with a Biocentric footbed provides all-day comfort. The heel strap stays secure during those moments when you have to move fast, since a lot can happen in a day.

Not my best choice
This sandal is well made and has very good arch support but it did give me a blister on the top of my left foot. It also pinches where the leather criss-crosses Maybe it's my foot because the right one is fine. I wear an 8.5 and these only come in straight sizes and I choose the 9 and maybe should have chosen the 8. First time I've had sandal problems. We are going on vacation for two weeks in the Canadian Rockies and hope they will be broke in by then. Thanks.
Chaco Isabella Sandals
These sandals fit great, look fabulous, and feel wonderful. I have been having a difficult time finding a sensible sandal that has a low heel and a back strap. (I am prone to accidents) Everything out there is ridiculously high with no way of staying on the shoe. At any rate, these fit the bill and my big feet. Plus they are awfully cute!

Training Tips
Low weight, high rep circuit training combines the best of both worlds: aerobic and anaerobic training. Keeping the rest time in between high repeats low excercises like bench press, leg presses, inclined sit-ups, and upright rows is the key to maximum benefits.
As a long distance runner, a gradual increase in distance each week will allow you to build a solid areobic base. Distance increase should be no more than 10% of the previous week's distance.
When buying a new pair of running shoes, bring your old ones with you. You will get a better fit if you know if you supinate or pronate.
Heart monitors are useful for knowing when you are in the right zone for your training efforts. If you understand what your maximum heart rate is, you can set up your monitor to beep at you when you exceed the high or low range of your heart rate for the type of workout you are doing.
