Personal:

I'm a former rower, looking at getting into some other form of competition after "retirement" from my pastime of the previous four years. I'm dedicated, but a little held back by my formerly 215lb 6'7" frame.

Felt pretty terrible on the ankle. Going to go for a new shoe fit, these 2150s are killing my outside ankle. Going to go  on Thursday, and maybe Saturday for a shakedown before the race on Sunday.

Felt much, much, much better running on these shoes; it didn't hurt to walk around later in the day. I think I'm going to do a 3 mile shakedown on Saturday, with a couple minor tempo miles. I'd train through this race (its not a priority), but my foot is still sore from the damage caused by the 2150s.

Little shakedown. Mile warmup, mile race pace, half mile jog, mile race pace, stretch. Felt great. Feeling confident about tommorrow.
