Ben, I need new shoes. How is your stock of 2e (wide) Mizuno Waveriders?

From Ben VanBeekum on Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 23:46:42 from 67.169.246.116

I think were good. Aren't you a size 10 2e? Or 9.5 2e. Let me know what size, and I will check.

I will be in Ogden tomorrow evening because my cousin is getting married on Saturday morning. I would like to do a 20 miler Saturday morning. Let me know if you would like to do it. We would need to start early (between 4:30 and 5am). The wedding is in Bountiful.

Logan I would love to. Could you come to up to Ogden? Or what do you think?

My cousin lives over by the Walmart in Harrisville. Give me a call and we can plan something. 801-391-7859
