I took Maja again and we enjoyed a very relaxing early morning run. The pace was all of 8:00 per mile, and I tried to work on the form a little while running in the Nike Free's. I had lunch with Chad and we chatted briefly about his experience training in racing flats. I like the idea better than going straight to the VFF/barefoot approach, and may try it out the next time I'm ready to buy shoes. I remember my old Nike Waffle Racers from high school (and still have one from the pair I wore when I broke 4:30 in the 1600 as a HS soph--pathetic, I know) and how much I loved wearing them, so I'm looking forward to trying it out in the next couple of months.
As I was getting ready to leave for work, Brooke told me that Janey (our 4-year-old) had told her before going to bed that the glow-in-the-dark bracelet she was wearing was "not magich, just a coincidence." (That's not a typo--it's how she says "magic.") I have no idea what she meant, let alone where she picked up the new vocab word. |
