Drove to Hudsonville Michigan today. Haven't run since last Friday. Arch of my foot has been hurting. Still lingering pain across the top of the foot as well. Just have no clue what's up with this foot. At any rate, I was planning on running a race with my brother-in-law at Reeds Lake on Saturday, so I decided to test things out. Run went well. 1st 3 miles @ 8:00s, then mile 4 in 6:35ish, 1 mile at 7:30ish and then a second pick up for the closing mile, mostly downhill, in 6:15. Total run was 46 minutes.

(Nike Vomero -  54.8)

48 minute run today at 1pm, Hot  and Humid! Took it easy with my guess being that most of the run was between 7:45 and 8:15. Walked 5 minutes as a cool down afterwards. I'm guessing it was a 6.5 mile total workout.

Nike Vomero 61.3

Ran a 10k at Reeds Lake in Grand Rapids Michigan with my brother in law today. I'm pleased with my time, given the fact that I've only run a couple handfull of times over the last 8 weeks. I've definitely lost a considerable amount of fitness, but its coming back. The day wasn't terribly hot, but very humid. I was drenched within the first mile. Chris, my brother in law, went out a bit faster than I did and picked up a 30 second lead by mile 2. I began to slowly reel him in though and caught somewhere before the 5 mile marker. From this point in I slowed my pace a bit and ran it in with him. Splits were as follows:

1 - 6:35

2 - 6:46

3 - 6:57

4 - 6:59 

5 - 6:52

6.2 - 8:19 (6:55s)

2 mile warm up in Nike Vomero - 63.3

Race and 1 mile warm down in Asics Gel Speedstars - 43
