| | I am a creature of habit so I am not sure this schedule which only calls for 4 days a week works well for me. I'm going to stick to it though until after my half marathon and then I can adapt back to 6 days.

| | The weather was mild and very, very humid so that I was sweating profusely but more from just the moisture collecting on me as I moved through the liquid atmosphere than from a need to cool off. I seem to be fighting some sort of ear-nose-throat thing and running got my nose started. I ended up stopping at the end of each 1 mile to clear the nasal passages and get a few unimpeded snorts of air.

First day in the new Asics Gel-1150s and everything felt fine. No tender shins after running and much less complaining from the heels this morning. As of this morning I have lost 6 pounds since I started paying attention to my food intake on 01 Jan which is much faster than I had intended. I have 4 more I want to be rid of before the half marathon on 14 March.
