Recovery run, 7 @ 8:30 then 1.5 @ 10:00 pace

After my last several runs in my ST-6 racers which I bough in a whim for my 5k's, I decided to break out my old Boston Classics which I have not used much since migrating to the Adizero close to 2 years ago.  I was amazed at the difference, felt like I was running with bricks on my feet the first couple miles!  Oh well, I guess that is good, if I want my racers to keep feeling like feathers, it is good to mix it up!  I just found it a little humorous, because I ran in the Boston Classics for 7 years & I remember thinking so many times how it I thought it funny people would sacrifice the cushioning I enjoyed for a lighter shoe, as if that could really make a difference!  Well, now I know it does!

Boston Classic Miles: 8.50

Hope you have an awesome run today in your new AG! Oh, and Happy Bday, btw. :)

Hope that chocolate cake was yummy!!! If there's any extra, have a slice for me... I am so off of the desserts right now. I had Godiva chocolate on my first day of diet - not good! ;)
