Right heel is really starting to hurt.  Iced and wrapped my foot after the run.

Easy jog before my race tomorrow.  No foot pain wearing the nike free's, just with the mizunos.  Hopefully my heel doesn't start hurting during the race.

Good race, unusual distance 12k.  Started out slow and picked up the pace throughout the race.

Pretty good run.  Averaged 8:30 for the first 14mi, then slowed down the last 2.6 when my legs started to get sore.

Big race for middle GA. 1200 runners.  Course was a little hilly, but not too bad.  The weather was great.  I ran exactly what I wanted to run.  I had bowling alley pizza the day before and had a really bad stomach ache.  I wasn't expecting to run the race very fast, but I did pretty much the exact pace that I wanted to run before I had the stomach ache, so I was happy.  I haven't had a chance to get in any speed work for my marathon training, so the race was a great opportunity.

Ran a hilly course in Byron, GA with a small group.  We averaged 8:52/mi.  My calves were pretty sore by the end of the run.  I have been wearing my Nike Free's the past 2 weeks due to a heel spur, and I can really feel it working my calves and feet.  No heel spur soreness though, so its worth the extra muscle soreness.
