It felt good to get off the Arc Trainer and actually run. I did a warm up mile probably around 7:45, I didn't time it. During warm up I was getting a bit worried about my foot. By the end of warm up it was feeling pretty good. Then I went into my all out 3 min run and I felt nothing accept my lungs wanting to explode and my legs getting really heavy. I definitely will not race in those heavier more cushioned shoes. I don't know how anyone tries to race in those things. I felt like a Clydsdale in them. I may try and put my orthodics in my racing flats, or maybe I'll just wear an arch brace.
It was great seeing you all at the race and at lunch afterwards. I had fun up there even though my race was dissapointing. Final time 1:34:39 Avg pace 7:11
