Today was the most enjoyable run I can remember in a looong time. And ironically it was on an indoor track at the gym without an ipod which I used to despise. My body just felt really good. My legs and feet have pretty much recovered from the shock of changing my running form, and so running just felt absolutlely great today. I ran 6 miles barefoot at about 150-155 heart rate in 45-46 minutes. A little blister on my left big toe started to grow around mile 3, by mile 4.8 it was annoying so I put on my FiveFingers and it didn't hurt anymore. I didn't feel any knee pain at all. In fact, my knees and lower back are feeling great, better than I can remember them feeling in a long time. Its very obvious that changing my running form has significantly reduced the negative impact on my knees and back. And on another note, while I was prancing merrily around the track for 6 miles, Nan was killing it in Longmont at the Turkey Trot 10K. She won (no huge surprise) the female race in 36:10 I believe. Nice job Nan! |
