Ran west from the house at about 8:30. Ran 8 miles at about a 10 min/mile pace. It was cold, but for the most part the run felt really good. I picked up the pace several times and felt good during most of the run. Ran in my new Brooks shoes. Had to loosen the left laces halfway through and that solved the pain in my foot, mostly. I had a pretty sharp pain between the third and fourth toes on my left foot when I finished, but it went away when I was through, so I'll watch for it this afternoon. It's President's Day and Dalene is home from school. We're going to lunch but, hopefully, I'll still get my nutrition and be able to do a couple more miles this afternoon. That's my plan. Went out at 4:00 and ran 2.5 miles west to the Cranefield Roundabout and back. I have blisters on 2nd and 3rd toes of my right foot. Ran in my Asics shoes this afternoon with thin socks, running shorts and three shirts. It was a little cold but with a stocking cap and gloves it felt pretty good. Ran just under a 10 minute pace. |
