For some reason the shoe manager is not letting me add my new shoes I tried out today. I got a new pair of Asics DS Racers. I wanted something light that still had some stability and a bit of a heel lift. They seemed to work well. I could tell I had a little more stability control with them, but the weren't as cushiony as my Sketchers and the toe box was a little smaller than I like. Overall I give them a B. I wish I could get my hands on another pair of Asics Tarthers, but they only sell them in Japan and Europe.
Anyways, I did 14 miles today, AP 7:35.
That was my first that far since the Phoenix Marathon last March. My legs seemed to hold up pretty well. I got a little worried that my calf was tightening up with a few miles to go, so I backed off the pace the last few miles. Maybe it was just my imagination, but I figured, better safe than sorry.
