The Weekend
08.25.09
Another weekend flew by…a great one nonetheless, just busy. Friday morning we tried salad for breakfast leading into my long run of 13 miles. It was a very good thing, felt light but not much to hold the water in, many pit stops. I guess that’s a plus for the morning bagel.
I saw clients Saturday and Sunday but managed to fit in 40 miles with the Tiara Ditcher and rode next to BJ for his 18 mile run. Looking forward to next weekend, hopefully more downtime but I have a feeling that’s not going to happen.
Ran 5.5 miles today at the track: 4×100 strides then 2x (6×400) at 10:10 pace. I’m in a major battle with my new sneakers: Asics Cumulus 11…been running in the 10’s for over a year with no problem. Moved to the 11’s and have nothing but issues. Excruciating foot pain - I received this pair straight from Asics so I have a call into them to see if there are any 10s hanging around. If not, I’ll be on the quest for yet another new pair of sneakers. We’ll see if Asics will do the right thing…
