Last night was the MBA spouses' club opening social so I didn't run. I probably could have after, but I was feeling pretty stuffed full of chicken and cake and stories of how women or their babies died or almost died (made me feel bad for the pregnant women at the table - those stories are a thousand times worse when you're all pregnant and hormonal), so I just stayed home. It was raining for the first half of my run but it wasn't too bad. I did the first part of my normal run but there were crowds of people walking to the game and I didn't want to turn around and run past them again to get back home so I did a little loop on 900 E and then back down some road. I liked it because I was going uphill until 2.2 instead of about 1.9. And it ended up being about the same distance at the end as normal, anyway. 8:47, 9:04, 8:19, 7:29 for .84, 8:27 ap. I'm probably going to order new shoes tonight or tomorrow. I'm thinking launches or kinvaras, but I'm curious about the brooks pure ones (not the connect - I hit on the outside and not the inside of my forefoot). |
