Bad week last week. It was good to get some rest to recover from going overboard the previous week. I meant to get out Saturday, but unexpectedly ended up helping someone move and had too much work to do outside the house before the sun went down to get out. I'm not sure when I'll learn that if I don't get out early, I just don't get out, but I think the rest was good. I had no trouble at all with my shins this morning, so it was probably the right thing to do. It just puts my 1,000 year in jeopardy. Nice run this morning in the frozen air. I did the 6 mile buffalo, which has two strava segments on it that I own and set new PRs on. It was nice and I was able to run a bit faster than usual and keep up the cadence. I also picked up a replacement for my dead launches. I got some Pure Flows, which are going to be a Christmas present, but I think I'll have to break them in before then. I tried Pure Connects, but they have a super narrow arch. It felt like there was a big rock across the mid-sole. It forced me to land on the fronts of my feet. I wondered if I could get used to it, but decided to try the Flows and they were much better. They are so light, it is like they are not even there. 203 miles to go. I can still make it. Can I make it with my shins intact?
