AM - 15 on mural, 6:08 pace. last 10 in 60:33. 

realized during the run that i don't think i've ran 12 miles straight since april, and i could tell as those last 3 miles felt longer mentally than the 12 that came before it. felt a bit sluggish at the start, but after 5 miles i really started moving. grass was very wet but shields kept my feet entirely dry, i was stunned. only negative was i could feel a blister developing on one of my toes around mile 11 and those last ~20 minutes it was pretty painful. great run! just need to run a shakeout tonight and i'll get my first triple-digit week in about a year

PM - 5 very easy on mural, 6:48 pace. gym after for core and back.

Pegs or new type?

they’re pegasus 37 shields. my guess is that with my feet in the equivalent of saran wrap, no dampness in the shoe means a whole lot of dry friction, and you get the idea. could argue i need better socks, but the ones i use are pretty good. it’s worth the trade-off for a great run like this, but if i have to deal with it on every run over an hour that’s a bigger issue.

the hurricane hitting y’all where it hurts this week?

Shockingly not getting hit, but stay safe my friend, I think you’ll be stuck on the treadmill until Wednesday.
