If you've purchased a Limited Edition box and, after putting in your key, you didn't receive the Boots of Running, you're not alone. This problem has been cropping up all over the place, including with my own copy. You're not out of luck though, Turbine has a knowledgebase page up just for this issue:

I put in my own request last night, and received a new key (with an extra 30 days of gameplay as compensation) in my inbox this afternoon. Kudos to Turbine for their quick and relatively painless resolution of this problem.
