Hawt!

Wanna see something really titillating?*



This sexy little video of my overpronating gait in an old pair of Asics 2120s has been viewed 1,640 times on You Tube. While I do think my calves are decent and it's a good example of rolling over my arches, I don't really comprehend the viewership.

I'm a little concerned it was embedded on some Asics porn blog.


*No need to watch all of it; there's nothing tantalizing at the end of the video.

Did anyone embed it into their site or blog? (I believe there is a way to check because some dude hit me with an e-mail saying "thanks" after I posted one of his utube vids on my blog) That would be even creepier. YIKES!

Wow, you're famous!
And for being 'YouTube famous' it's a very scandal free clip - which is good!

Melanie said...

funny that it got so many views! you're a running celebrity :)

Southbay Girl said...

I'm really fascinated that so many people viewed it-not that it was bad....

Jo Lynn said...

Wow! Interest in pronation has really jumped over the years. ;)

Mama Marathon said...

Oooh, yeah, baby, pronation is *hot*.

Rookie on the Run said...

I over pronate, too. Maybe there's money in this...???

David Ray said...

Just some more of that creepy internet love thing.

Xenia said...

Overpronation is indeed all the rage. I'm in like flynn. :)

Carlee said...

That's too funny. I love hearing about what people find so ....? Congrats on your fame!

ThatGirlRuns said...

I wonder what search topics people used to get to this video... Intriguing!

Pavement Runner said...

Maybe we are all over-analyzing it. I think all thousand-plus people are in the market for a used bicycle (in the background)...

I also over-pronate and have seen a smiliar video of myself... i dont understand how our ankles havent snapped off with how our feet hit the ground. Yay for asics I guess.

Beth said...

I think you have so many views because everyone is checking out your cool basement. Nice bike!

Kathleen @ ForgingAhead said...

Ouch! Does it hurt? I'd be afraid to see what my stride looks like.

Ulyana said...

Seeing you run in slow motion made me think of how bad running on a concrete is for our knees!!!!

Willie said...

You know I love you and all but I have to ask... How did it get on YouTube?? I'm going to have to do some more in-depth searches if there are things like this out there. I'm so out-of-touch with what's new and hip!

That's really interesting, what is neat is seeing the pressure hitting the treadmill as well!

It's been viewed almost 200 times since you published this blog post.

Thanks for the kind comments. I did swim last night with the club strapped on. I figured it was better than sitting around and re-reading that post while blubbering. :D I'll be okay in time. Looking forward to no pain.

Do you overpronate more on the left? It sort of looked like it but maybe it was just the angle. Funny, we are all watching you run.

Asics porn? FINALLY!

TATUR Dave said...

That was titillating, for sure. I don't know you, but Google Reader recommended your blog to me. Now you are famous.

Makes me want to take a video of my gait. I guess I'll have to get a treadmill first.

AKA Alice said...

Yep...that is some serious overpronation...that's what led me away from Asics...they wore out too quickly.

How DID it get on YouTube?
