Well I had to make it a quick run tonight. My husband was off earlier then usual so that left me with less time. I will try to run some in the morning tomorrow, so that I can get some more miles in. I felt pretty good though so I can't complain.

6 miles - 52:40

A little slower and longer tonight. I'm iceng my left foot as I blog, and will continue tonight and tomorrow. I started getting a pain in it around mile 6 but I don't think it is too bad, just being cautious.

Tonight was a pretty uneventful run, not much to say about it. 

6.2 miles- 55:38

I do have a question though. How many miles do you get from your shoes. I know Sasha gets more then us mere mortals. But I have been getting some aches when I'm running nothing big but I didn't think my shoes were that old, I even check the sales receipt (I save them til I buy a new pair) for the date. 5/28/08, but when I check my mileage on them it was 510. Should I be able to get more? I have a small hole in the back by my ackeles tendon that is giving me a blister. I guess this is one of the hazards of running more miles them before. Needing to get shoes more often. :)

Was up to late reading the last book of the Twilight series, almost done. so I got a late start to my run this morning. Thank heavens that is was a bit cooler today and there was a nice breeze on the trails. Did my regular loop, and then failed miserably when I tried my test of running to the bridge up Taylor's canyon. My legs were very wobbly feeling the rest of the way to the car and even a bit now. But I loved the run!! running the trails is aways good!
