Driving 800 miles to Get Some New Vibram KSO Treks on Wednesday

This week I’m heading home to the Peoria Illinois area where I’m originally from.  I haven’t been able to find any Vibram KSO Treks, the leather cold weather version of Vibram five finger toe shoes anywhere in the Carolinas.

Then I had an epiphany and remembered that I’d be travelling and maybe I could check some stores enroute to Illinois.

I did a search in Illinois first, and found a store in Peoria, on Main St.  I’m not sure, but it might be the same store that’s been selling running shoes in Peoria since well, about as far back as I can remember. 

They are called Running Central (no twitter account but they are on Facebook).

I called and talked to Adam I believe and sure enough they had one pair left in my size!  They reserved that last pair for me and I’m going to pick them up when I get there this week. 

Sooo can’t wait, plus, my toes won’t get as cold or wet running while I’m in Illinois.
