I gave the new Asic Speedstars a try today. Not bad. After only running in the VFFs for the past 3 weeks, I was surprised at how good regular shoes felt.
Ran 6 miles at lunch w/ Darin. 60F, sunny, 10 MPH wind. AP: 7:35
Ran 11 miles after work in Ft Worth. I ran the El Scorcho 5K loop a few times -- it's a different perspective running it during daylight hours instead of after midnight (I signed up for the El Scorcho 50K, again -- my offer still stands, if anyone wants to run this, you're welcome to stay at my house, and I'll even provide transportation.)
Ran the 11 miles a bit slower than the lunctime 6.
Overall 17 mile AP: 7:59
My right heel is a little tender, but not too bad. I'll be resting it every other day from here until Boston. | |

6 at lunchtime w/ Darin. Sunny, 75F, S17-26MPH (windy) AP: 7:34 Right heel is feeling much better. Ran in the Speedstars again. Looks like these are good to go for Boston. pm Decided to go to my first spin class in about a year (there was a "farewell" celebration for the instructor. Did 1 hour spin -- I'm giving myself credit for 4 miles...I hope that's fair. This might have been a violation of the "don't do anyting stupid this close to Boston" rule. I won't be doing spin again any time soon. Good workout, though. Tough ont he quads. | |

| Lunch run w/ Darin. I wasn't feeling quite so spunky today..due in part to my spin class last night, and part due to the 20 MPH steady south wind. Not a bad run overall. Wore the Supernovas (they feel like boat anchors compared to the VFFs or Speedstars). AP: 7:41 75F, 20-26MPH S, Sunny

Met Corey and Lana at the Lake Weatherford Marina at 7:30. Ran one lap around the lake w/ them at about 9:35 / mi (8.5) miles. Ran the next lap alone, at about 8:30/mi -- added another few miles running through the neighborhoods around the lake. It was a great morning for a run (cool and low wind). Finished with 51 miles for the week...probably my longest week all year! | |
