Did an easy jog before my first test of the semester at about an 8:40/mi pace.

Got my Vibram Five Fingers in the mail today so I thought I would test them out, so I ran a quick out an back 1.4mi.  I really like them and I was altering my running gait to make less noise when I hit the ground.  I'm about to start doing some motion lab testing on barefoot vs shoe running and I'm excited that I actually get to do a fun project that I'm interested in.  My previous work was on flow separation control using  piezoelectric  material an airfoil in a windtunnel.
