50:18 at est. 7:30 pace, so call it 6.7M. Ran at 11:30am at RSPP. End HR was 145. Weather was pleasant. My calves, which had been very sore after yesterday's speed workout, were fine, but both Achilles were stiff the whole way today. Afterwards, my left achilles feels a little tweaked (worse than just sore). It is down near the connection to the heel, similar to what I had last September. Day to day for now. Ran in a new pair of Adidas Adistar Cushion 6, same model and size as my last pair (but a lot cleaner and shinier). Since they are exactly the same as my workhouse shoes, I didn't expect any problems. They felt tight when I put them on, but didn't cause any blisters or problems. I don't think the Achilles issue today is attributable to the new shoes.
Ran past KK on the aqueduct trail. He appeared to be cruising and looked fine. We waved at each other and then he was long gone.
Full weights routine in the afternoon.
Triax (1): 356 + 300 est. Triax (2): 107
Adistar: 546 + 50 est. Adistar (2): 6.7
Cumulus: 273
