4 miles, 4:30pm. So yesterday I got some new shoes: the Mizuno Wave Inspire 7. They felt great in the store, very cushy and good. I have been wanting to get some more substantial shoes for awhile both because I think it would be good for me to not run in the VFFs/Merrells on every single run but mostly because I have to do a gravel leg on H2C and those do NOT do well on rocks (ouch ouch ouch). So I took the new shoes out for a spin, ugh, it was horrible. Calf pain and my legs just felt sooo heavy. Plus the sun was beating down on me (shocking, right?) and it was so hot (had to run in the afternoon because of date night) so this was just a poor run overall. Was going to stop after 2 but then I decided to put the VFFs on and I toughed out 2.17 more. TT: 39:59 AP: 9:36 Mariners Game! They actually won and it was actually exciting (at least in the second half!).
