Day 7: Lake Tahoe: Negative Heel Earth Shoes

Well it is a beautiful morning in Lake Tahoe.

The kids all went to a Science Camp for 1.5 hours and we went exploring Lake Tahoe but really only got as far as the stores with an European flair in the resort complex. By this point you all know about my fear of being too cold so we go into the Patagonia store trying to find a discounted jacket/fleece/vest in the event I get too cold. (Once I get a chill, it can takes days for me to shake it.) Jen, Bop and I are completely enthralled with the Patagonia store. As a woman, you can never have enough shoes, bags or coats. For the shoes, we were introduced to the Earth ExerFit with Kalso negative heel technology shoes. The unique design can contribute to fat-burning effects at a rate of up to 4x that of conventional footwear. They create a longer hip-to-ankle lever that can actively recruit leg muscles. And all the calorie burning effects of an 3.5 degree inclinded treadmill.

Needless to say Jen, Bop and A. Honey walked out with our black, green and bronze sandals, respectively on their feet (other bags were in hands which is the subject of another post). In just one day Bop claims to have already lost 5 pounds. If anyone else wants a pair let me know before 10 am PST on Tues.
