I went running with my Ragnar team early this morning.  So early that I put my shoes on in the dark.  You'll notice that I had to split my miles up between two different shoes.  At least it was one right foot and one left foot.

Time - 44:30 (avg. pace 8:54)

Splits - 9:02, 8:55, 8:51, 9:02, 8:39

i bet the white/classic blue/raven shoe looked better with your outfit.

From Burt on Sun, Dec 19, 2010 at 13:21:53 from 72.223.84.236

Stalker! Yes! I was wearing my blue shorts and white and blue shirt. Of course, you already knew that.

From allie on Sun, Dec 19, 2010 at 13:28:14 from 174.23.238.75

yes, i knew that.

by the way, does your ragnar team get annoyed that you sing the hallelujah chorus at the top of your lungs during a group run?

From Burt on Sun, Dec 19, 2010 at 20:42:50 from 72.223.84.236

I don't sing that song anymore now that I understand what the lyrics mean.

oh my Burt, what about the other shoes belonging to those pairs that you didn't wear? Now you need to run 5 miles with the other left/right shoes to even everything out. I don't think I would be able to sleep at night

"At least it was one right foot and one left foot."

yes, but the question is whether or not it was early enough to put the right shoe on the left foot...

From Burt on Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 12:48:59 from 206.19.214.144

Chris - you're absolutely right. I guess I wasn't OCD enough to think about that.

Nevels - It's hard to tell sometimes. Especially when I'm dancing.
