10 miles easy (8:24 AP), starting right after sundown. First 6.5 with Holly. To Liberty, 2 laps on the mulch, and back. Would've done more, but Holly wasn't liking the heat (still in the 80s) and wouldn't drink at Liberty Park, for whatever reason, so I just came back early and then did another 3.5 (up 4th to Virginia to South Temple, and back) by myself. My Orange Kinvara 4s are, for all intents and purposes, destroyed after 338.5 miles, and I don't want to do all of my running in 5.whatever ounce A6 racing flats that already have 326.6 miles on them, so I ordered some Skechers GoRun 2s for $49. Let's hope I like them. If not, I'll probably try a pair of the lastest Fastwitch. I must say that my body is reacting to finally upping the mileage (55.5 miles in the last 5 days) with a bit of fatigue, so I'll be happy to run virtually everything at 8:00+ minute pace for the next week or two until I'm feeling strong again.
